You just press the flap, don't you.

Shambles · **Reply #2: April 28, 2014, 19:20:06**

Yeah figured it out after spending ages looking for a release lever. Oops.

Apparently, my interpretation of a tank of fuel is different to theirs

just push to open? do they have a lock? better keep a hanky with you Steve so you don't put finger prints on you glossy black new Baby, whats her name?
So GD lost locking glove box & the remote fuel cap release.

Lakes · **Reply #15: April 28, 2014, 21:59:46**

Do they still have a, or same fuel cap & filler neck? or has that changed to flap type or fast fill like the race cars? my friends wives Focus Diesel has the fast fill fuel fill op you don't unscrew anything you just push pump nozzle in & fill, they are good, but hard to brim with.

LOL , well she has replaced Ol Fergie?

VaerO · **Reply #18: April 28, 2014, 22:38:00**

Just push to open and close, this can only be done when the doors are unlocked. It still has a fuel cap.

Hornet · **Reply #19: April 28, 2014, 23:06:32**

Am I correct when I say "Shambles is in a bit of a flap"

eye30 · **Reply #20: April 28, 2014, 23:14:34**

Do you usually brim the tank?

If so, be interesting to see what is the actual capacity of vayda to fergie and whether the tank is larger, smaller or the same. But also the filler pipe length will probably be different anyway so may not get accurate comparison.

Phil №❶ · **Reply #21: April 28, 2014, 23:17:49**

The comparison will be accurate, but the figures may differ.

He was on his lunch break.
Can't cover much in 20 minutes.

Trev runs for the hills again, now with Kittikat and Darth Vader in pursuit.

Bit of a worry!

no i won't.

Doggie 1 · **Reply #27: April 29, 2014, 05:23:58**

Yes it's a push flap situation.
And as stated above, it only works when the car is unlocked.

Keith · **Reply #28: April 29, 2014, 08:45:56**

RTFM maybe...?

Can I say that here?

The Gonz · **Reply #29: April 29, 2014, 08:48:02**

Where's Kitti? She'd be quick to point out that we mere males never RTFM.
