Thread: Fuel Doors getting lazy on me. Help?

My fuel door is sagging. I have no idea how to fix it. Anyone know how? Maybe a video or pics? It's been like this for a while now. I believe the top hinge or whatever holds it is broke.

thanks!

You have to pull out inner fender and go underneath there are 3 screws you have to tighten them up I had that problem before

Alright Ill give it a shot if I ever get some decent weather over here.

I actually had to replace the pin that holds the hinge together, it had rusted, and broke in half. Might want to check that if all your screws are tight.

How so? Cause just from the fuel door and the wheel well i see 1 screw. Cant see where the hinge is, its like right around the corner of the of the fuel door.

When you open the fuel door there are 4 screws and two rivets. Remove screws, drill out rivets, and the whole fuel door assembly can be removed.

Gotcha on the 4 screws. I'm a little confused on "rivets?"

When you open the door, there are two rivets on the left hand side above and below the hinge. Should be silver...the other two things left after you take out the screws. Those are the rivets and need to be drilled out to remove.

Gotcha. I thought that's what they were but I wasn't sure. Then it pulls out through the wheel well?

It will just pull out. No need to remove the tire or open the trunk. It just pulls straight out. You'll see when you drill the rivets out.
