Can't Open Gas Door From Inside - 1/8/2006 8:47:54 PM    zpak   Posts: 2 Joined: 1/8/2006 Status: offline I have a 2004 Honda Civic that when I was almost on empty find that I can not get the damn gas door to open from the lever inside on the left of the driver seat. Is there any emergency cable ? or do I need to take it to the service , if I can make it. Anyone help? Post #: 1

Called service and they told me to pull the liner inside the trunk near the gas cap... lightly turn the cable 1/4 left and out popped the door open.. Real easy...Thanks (in reply to lightshow) Post #: 4
