Thank you
Managed to ge the motor out and the fuel door open within 5 mins of watching this vid, absolute legend mate!
Thanks for the trick.
Poor SAAB, a lot of rust 😩. It need LOVE.
Tell me about it
Cyclone Cyd to the rescue once again! This happened to me earier today with my 9-3. Of course you only find this out when low on fuel and already at the petrol station 😆 Thankfully I only live a couple of miles from the nearest one so it wasn't a drama and I could get home (after spending nearly £12 on a tin of WD-40 from same garage in the hope that would fix it).
You are a legend my friend. Keep posting the videos
My Ford C-Max has a button on the dash, and I could not get the fuel door to open. I followed your advice, and voila! it's working now. THANK YOU for saving me so much money for a repair!! Love you!
Going to try this tomorrow, just discovered this issue tonight. Thanks for sharing!
please make a video on how to remove that fuel filler neck sleeve/ fuel door hinge unit. I had recently fixed my broken one and it was quite a pain to remove and fix as there weren't any good videos of it online.
I've added it to the list and will look into it.
Thanks! Your video saved me some stress and money!
Great to hear!
Ah for the good old days when you had a key operated locking filler cap ! And a key for the boot or a internal boot lever.
Paul, I saw there are RUST on your Saab body ( right quarter panel above the wheel ). Grind-away the rust, put few layers of anti-rust, primer and some paint job ....
Sitting at the gas station with a broken flap and no gas. Saved my live showing me how to open the gas tank from the inside of the trunk
U had a screwdriver?
Thanks Cyd, I'm always curious about nearly everything and I like learning... But as you know, I own a C1 and I don't have this problem of «comfort»... 😃🚗😃
Learning is good. 👍
Am really need a help of this i am at the service station i want petrol but my petrol cover don't want to be open now what can i do
Thank you for this informative and understandable video. I will try this and see if it works for the car I'm working on.
Very nice! I don't recall having to work on them ever, unless the door was stuck shut. Wd40 usually helps lubricate them enough (on the push button to pop them open style). The locking seems unique to me. Always learning something new. Thanks! 😊
This type of CDL linked system has gone out of favour due to security concerns while fueling, but it used to be all the rage.
You could periodically lubricant the release inside the gas door with silicone spray .
Rocking the freestyle libre!!
I'm on the Libre 2 now - the alarms are a huge help
Great Video As Always , Any Plans To Treat The Rust Wheel Arch
Same thoughts 🤣🤣🤣
Planning to get on it this summer.
Hopefully I never have this problem... but if I do at least I can look through your videos like I did when I had a previous problem with my car ( thanks to you for that one 👍🏽😀) Very informative as always. Spot-on 👍🏽😀
Thanks John. I wouldn't say it's super common, but I have seen a few threads about it on various Facebook groups recently.
I have a ford ecosport titanium and I can't lock the fuel door. It's open all the time even if I lock the car. What should I do. Luckily I can fill the petrol but someone can steal it too
Very well explained - awesome
Thanks for your comments
Well articulated.
Thank you! Very clear and concise advice!
Thank you
You're welcome
Thanks for the video, very useful. 👍👍👍
I have a 2007 Nissan Murano and the gas cap cover won't unlock. Using the electronic door opener brings a clicking sound, but doesn't release the flap when I push it. Any ideas?
I recently started having this problem I'm pushing the button to open the door for the gas door to open and nothing is helping Ibhsd to get someone to open the fuel door while I push the button and then it finally opens I have a warranty on my car though.
I was wondering the same as Matt Johnson, no relation, would it be possible to do a video on repairing the rust on the wheel arches, cheers.
Yeah, I'm gonna make a start at cleaning it up soon. Seems to be a particular problem with 2007 7 2008 model years.
i had some flooding issues in side believe the door lock vacuum pump got damaged , my gas cap door is locked , Can I unhook from the pump and it will unlock ?
thanks for the video
Body side of main is covering how i can able to open it right now
The first step would be to speak proper English so people know what you're saying

Hi
Do you have any idea if there are licenceplate bulbs for the saab 93 YS3F which are not flickering.
Or maybe you know some figligts which are not hyperflashing without building an relay circuit like you have shown it in your led reverse light conversion video?
Thank you an best regards
I'm not aware of any. Relays it is.
These's do NOT flicker.
Great video! This happened to me two days ago. Managed to get the plunger going again.... But now the alarm is going off on its own for no reason. Have you come across that before? :-(
What car? If a saab 9-3, then check the wiring to the alarm siren, in case you disturbed it.
thumbs up
Seems your ride has worse problems than the fuel door
❤
I never seen a saab that rusty 😭
My 2007 is quite a bit worse on the rear arches sadly. The rear arches seem to be where they go first. It's one of those things I'm just leaving though as it's not worth fixing.
Yeah, 07 & 08 model years do seem worse. I'll be starting on it soon.
Mine doesn't lock.
At least that's better than not unlocking 🤘
that shit cost too much
