Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Morgan Aero 8, 2012< Plus 8, SuperSports, Coupe & Aeromax AeroSS - fuel filler cap key

Hi,
I would like to keep a copy of the fiel filler cap key in the car.
I thought it would have been pretty easy to find a "blank one" and having that cut.
Three different (big) places in Italy did not have the blank key.
Does anybody of you where could I find it?
I do not really care about the MOG logo or the shape.
It has simply to work.
Any suggestion/idea, more than welcome.

We discussed this (much) earlier and I recall that most recent Morgan fuel caps are 044.

Not that this helps source another!

I am usually good in googling but with TM posts it's pretty difficult, for me. If you could point me to the other thread happy to go on there.
Meanwhile, is 044 a "brand"?

This is all I could find on a Google - https://www.htsspares.com/catalogue/plant/plant-accessories/plant-keys/ignition-keys/show/hky0002

I am assuming the 044 is the basic blank profile of the key that you need to have copied.

Here is another link - maybe a photograph of your key to them would help - it is the 044 Series. They imply that the actual key number should be inscribed on the barrel of the lock facing you as you look at it.

it looks like an old lucas FS type key.

I thought they were “single sided”

The morgan owners are honest people so we do not steal the fuel between us, is not the case in the automotive luxury brand for which I work.

I'm happy to share my fuel from time to time, if I can get rid of the hassle of the key.
I fear that sooner or later that key/lock will cost me much more than a few liters of fuel.

All three of my Morgans have had 044 and any key will open any cap of the three..............
I just checked two this afternoon

3 keys, 3 cars...
Looks like an expensive option.
