is it easy to remove the assembly,i have removed the one phillips screw that i can see and the filler cap assembly can be pushed around a bit

it needs to be done with the reawr arch liner removed as the filler is attatched to the funnel to the tank usually the seal goes causing the rust then again its been so long since i done one i think it could be behind the rear passenger panel

ahh thanks,,also on mine rust around the rear wiper blade arm

what a caper it is :(

Just have the affected panels replaced, cheapest/easiest way rather than patching bits up and messing about with it that way.

I also own a Ford Ka with rust problems - in particular around the fuel filler cap and rear wiper.

Don't despair though - I found some "Rust Screening Rings" on Ebay specifically designed for these problem areas - bought both and they have really transformed my Ka and are really easy to fit.
