You might try putting one of the coil springs inside the cobra down near the
elbow, they are cone shaped coil spring, you sort of wind it up and stuff it
in and it springs (funnily enough) back out to lock in place, the
Coils come down to about 10mm at the centre so you cant push a hose through
it, that way you will only lose a few liters at most from the cobra
Good luck,

My fuel is definitely going off!
Its going off site in fuel cans! Have noticed some stains on the floor at
the side of my aircraft (from syphoning) over recent months, last weds I
filled the aircraft for flight to top of the Cobra, I did not manage to fly
that day due to a techie issue, on visiting the aircraft yesterday to sort
out the techie (flat battery) I ran the engine for long enough to warm then
refuelled and it took 20 litres, so it went somewhere, I looked under the
seat to see if anyone had left me a payment but sadly not, still I did not
issue them with any reward points either.
Theft is not a pleasant issue particularly from within the hanger, I will be
taking a few measures to try and sort this but the locking fuel cap is the
first.
Out of interest Europa do not keep them in stock and have a minimum of 2 - 3
weeks order wait list.

Maybe fuel does go off peak but my strimmer, lawn mower, generator and
outboard motor have all run just fine on very old fuel - years old.
