Fuel Filler Cap

NOTE: If a fuel tank filler cap requires replacement, use only a fuel tank filler cap with the same features. Failure to use the correct fuel tank filler cap can result in a serious malfunction of the fuel and EVAP system.

The fuel tank filler neck is equipped with a tethered fuel filler cap. The cap requires a quarter of a turn to remove it. A built in torque-limiting device prevents over tightening. In order to install the cap, turn the cap clockwise until you hear three audible clicks. This signals that the correct torque has been reached and the cap is fully seated. A fuel filler cap that is not fully seated may cause a malfunction in the emission system.
