Re: Gas Cap Malfunction Reply #4 - 06/29/11 at 20:18:07 Did ya push down to take the load off the lock mechanism? Twist back & forth, center the locks up in their "spot" & push down, Then give it a go,, but dont bust that key off,,

He said it's the latch which is catching & basically I need a new cap. That'll be the route I'll take if Justin's suggestion doesn't work.

Need to scrape the plastic down some I guess. Have been driving the sidecar rig lately so it hasn't been an issue. Max
