Scotty09 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Hey guys I'm Ross, purchased my first ford last week and been hard at graft with it the last 4-5 days. It's an 01 fiesta zetec s I've done quite a bit already. 40mm lowering springs Puma 1.7 conversion New hoses Xenon HID Kit 4500k Miltek exhaust 421 manifold B&N short shift gearbox Piggyback ECU Bose system Still have a few plans for it but so far so good. I'm quite proud to be a new member! And looking forward to speaking to a lot of you to find out hidden tips etc. As I am having trouble with my fuel cap as it's stiff as anything! Haven't managed to fill up yet... 馃槪 any tricks of the trade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Welcome to the family Ross :) As for the trick, not sure. If the cap is stuck firm then try pushing the cap in then pull it out, try and make it loose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty09 Posted November 12, 2013 Author Share Posted November 12, 2013 Hello thankyou! :) Yeah I've tried everything so far nearly snapped the key.. Tried holding and turning, being patient and pushing in and pulling. Not sure why it's done this. Is It a common problem with fords? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Not to my knowledge. I would personally suggest that the best thing you can do is go to Ford, they should have tips and tricks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
