Auto gas tank fill neck?
I'm trying to add some additive into my gas tank.
Easy no-brainer right ? WRONG ! I suspect I am not the only one having this issue with new cars.... Car 2013 For Explorer XLT The gas tank filler neck has a one-way cover, that opens when one inserts the gas pump nozzle. The issue I'm having is in the neck, I have discovered 2 metal tabs, one on each side, that get depressed and allows the pump nozzle to insert into the gas pipe that leads down into the tank. I have tried using a funnel, etc but none work, because the 2 metal tabs in filler neck must be depressed simultaneously in order for one-way cover to open. I think the opening is 3/8", as half inch too small and three-quarters too big. Ahhhhh the old days of cars, twist off the gas cap, and dump in the gas or anything else. So, looking for suggestions...... Thanks in advance ! |
