Hi guys

My fuel cap does not want to open and has been stuck closed for 3 days. I desperately need fuel. I have tried pulling the emergency release cord and still no luck. I have ordered the actuator part but I won't be able to access the actuator and replace it without it being opened. I have tried prying it open but don't want to forcefully pull the cap and risk paint damage. Any ideas of what I can do to get the !Removed! thing to open?

Hi get someone to push the flap closed while you pull the emergency release, keep it pulled and then get the other guy to release the flap.
