M151-series !-ton trucks is easy
this way:
Remove the fuel cap.
Weld a locking pin, NSN 5315-

you don't weld over and block the
Vent hole on the cap.
Put the Cp Bck on the fuel Tnk.
D³´ a hole in the fuel Tnk bµcket
where the locking pin hea¶ meets
the bracket. ·e sure the padlock's
shackle can gO through the hole.
