摘要： A torque-limit signal cap (10) for a filler neck (14) includes an axially outer portion (16), a filler neck closure (12), and a torque-limit signaler (20). The torque-limit signaler (20) operates during cap installation to interrupt temporarily a driving connection established between the axially outer portion (16) and the closure (12) to provide a tactile and/or auditory signal to a user turning the cap (10) in the filler neck (14) indicating that sufficient torque has been applied to the axially outer portion (16) to seat the closure (12) in a filler neck-closing position in the filler neck (14).
