Need information concerning gas cap/ fuel tank

I might have pissed someone off this weekend and prompted them to put shit in my fuel tank.

When I was adding gas I noticed a dried white substance on the upper part of the metal thing where you insert the fuel nozzle. I also noticed that my car seemed to have lost power, but that may be because of the extra weight of an almost full tank.

Can anyone give me an image of their fuel tank when the gas cap is removed? I want to know if there is that little metal tab where you put the nozzle or if it is just a hole.

Just a suggestion- a locking gas cap will let you piss off a bunch of people without shitting bricks in the future. Peace of mind, and all that.

Very sound advice from a man that is notorious for pissing off bunches of people.

It's so fun. And I have not shitted a single brick
. The people I piss off either richly deserve it, or can't take a joke.
