Guest scotka Posted February 24, 2006 Report Posted February 24, 2006 Greetings from a new poster ... Quick question My wifes Ka 3 has a locking fuel cap (key into filler cap rather than locking flap) which jammed on this morning. After fiddling with it periodically over the next few hours it came off - she is not sure why but there does not appear to be any damage. I have tried to operate it out of the vehicle using both the normal key and the master key but it does not appear to turn. From looking at it it appears that the lower part of the cap/lock (bit furthest from the key) pushes back and rotates but wont. I have blasted the %^*^ out of it with WD40 but, appart from some minor debris, this has not helped. Has anyone had/solved this problem or know how to disassemble the lock - the Haynes manual doesnt have a fuel lock in it and, apart from some tabs around the lock shroud I cannot see how to get it apart. Any help or advice appreciated TIA
