Hi. what's to keep the winter moisture out of the gas tank when using the OEM capless filler port?
I fill up 2x week.

There's a flap that seals shut. It needs a nozzle to open it.
It's why there is a plastic funnel in the roadside kit to allow you to refuel from a can that doesn't have the right nozzle if needed.

Alrighty. I feel better. I also use a spray can cap to keep out junk but knowing it’s built to manage fumes and pressure helps relax on moisture. Still keeping one eye on it tho. Thanks people.

I use the spray can cap to keep stuff out of the filler neck ABOVE the flap/valve. Once the debris is into the recess above the flap/valve, there's no keeping it out of the tank when you open the flap/valve with a pump filler head neck. I do the same on my Ford Transit which has no cap.

I dont like how you cant use a locking gas cap option, anyone can pop the door open and vandalize my fuel inlet. Also when fueling, I notice when I go get gas, I have to mess with the fuel pump nozzle to get it to lock on the handle, not all the way in, more like 2/3rds in. is it me?
