How do you use easy fuel gas cap?

Published in Vehicle Maintenance 2 mins read

To use an Easy Fuel® Capless Filler, simply open the fuel door, insert the nozzle completely through both inner flaps, fill up, wait five seconds before removing the nozzle, and then close the fuel door.

The Easy Fuel system is designed for convenience, eliminating the traditional screw-on gas cap. It utilizes a seal that is opened only when the correctly sized fuel nozzle is inserted.

Here are the steps for using the Easy Fuel Capless Filler system, as outlined in the provided reference:

  1. Open the Fuel Door: Access the fuel filler area by opening the vehicle's exterior fuel door.
  2. Insert the Nozzle: Once the fuel door is open, insert the nozzle all of the way, making sure it goes through both flaps. This dual-flap design helps create a seal and ensures proper fueling.
  3. Fill Up: Proceed with filling your fuel tank as you normally would.
  4. Wait Before Removing: After fueling is complete, you'll want to wait five seconds before removing the nozzle. This waiting period likely allows excess fuel to drain and helps prevent drips.
  5. Remove Nozzle and Close Door: Remove the nozzle carefully and close your fuel door securely.

Using the Easy Fuel system simplifies the refueling process by removing the step of handling a separate gas cap.
