FAQs
Does this cap come with spare keys?
Yes, the product includes two keys for your convenience.
Is the ELF034 compliant with MOT testing?
Yes, the cap is designed to meet MOT and current European safety standards.
How do I know if the cap is tightened enough?
The cap features a Torque Override mechanism that will produce an audible click when the seal is fully compressed.
Can I use this on any car?
No, it is specifically designed for a range of Citroen, DS, Fiat, and Peugeot models. Always confirm compatibility for your specific vehicle.
What happens if I lose both keys?
If both keys are lost, the cap will likely need to be professionally removed or replaced. It is recommended to keep one key in a secure location.
Does it prevent fuel vapors from escaping?
Yes, it contains pressure relief valves that manage vapor escape under normal conditions while allowing for safety venting during malfunctions.
Troubleshooting
Cap is difficult to turn or lock.
Apply a small amount of dry graphite lubricant to the keyhole and check the fuel neck for debris.
The 'click' sound does not occur when tightening.
Ensure the cap is properly seated in the threads and not cross-threaded. If it persists, inspect the internal torque mechanism for obstruction.
Fuel smell detected near the fuel door.
Check that the cap is fully tightened to the 'click' and inspect the rubber gasket for any signs of hardening or damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installing the ELF034 is a straightforward process: simply remove your existing fuel cap, insert the Equip cap, and turn clockwise until you hear the audible click. To lock, insert the key and turn it to the locked position; to unlock for refueling, insert the key, turn, and remove the cap as normal.
Compatibility: This model is specifically engineered for a range of Citroen, DS, Fiat, and Peugeot vehicles. Always verify your vehicle's specific fuel neck diameter against the ELF034 specifications before installation.
Care: Periodically check the rubber seal for debris or cracks that could compromise the airtight fit. Keep the keyhole clean and consider using a dry lubricant if the lock mechanism becomes stiff due to environmental grit or salt exposure.
