How to Open Stuck and Locked Gas Tank Cover. TOP 5 TIPS for 100% success

[@sandyneades5033]

Thank you so much! Went to the gas station and the latch on my 2012 Civic wasn’t working. Had enough gas to get home and deal with it in the morning, but then I found your video and was able to go in through the trunk and pull out the lock mechanism. Thanks for saving the day! Although with the price of gas these days, I should probably fix the lock. Haha.

“And now you will see that this cover removes very easily and we can move it” *shoves cover violently, sounds of things getting thrown around* “Excellent.” I love it.

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

Exactly!

[@j10001]

Wires the door closed. Then proves it can _still_ be opened if you need it opened that badly! 😂

[@أبوأروى-ط7و]

By following you, you have a good knowledge in the field of cars. I love to have even a very small part of your knowledge. I wish you success in all areas of life, not only in the field of cars

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

I appreciate that! 👍😀

[@ditr257]

Excellent work Peter! I liked the flathead screwdriver and crowbar solution best! A big hammer could help also though!

[@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor]

Good tip!

[@junclj]

11:41 you are actually destroying your car. If gas tank door not open, just adjust the spring of your gas tank door. No need to remove the whole gas tank button and cable. If the door really not open, ask someone to help keep push the gas tank button to maintain release the lock. Then you go to gas tank there and insert a card to pull out that door. Now you may start adjust the spring inside that gas tank door.

worth it for the funny acent the " tool" insertion and the plug for Mockitta: i gave up on it just before he disassembled the entire car. Very entertaining. 😊
