How to Open the Fuel Tank Cap of Changan Onuo

[WillowDella]

There is a fuel tank switch lever located below the left side of the driver's seat in the Changan Onuo. Pull it upwards to open the fuel tank cap. Below are detailed instructions about the car fuel tank cap: 1. First, understand the structure of the car fuel tank cap. Modern cars usually allow remote control of the trunk and fuel tank cap from inside the cabin, providing great convenience to the owner. 2. Generally, the trunk is separated from the cabin by the rear seats. Therefore, by removing the rear seats, you can access the trunk from the cabin. Once inside the trunk, you can open the lock by prying or turning the movable parts on the lock with a screwdriver. 3. If the fuel tank cap cannot be opened, you can start from the trunk. First, remove the inner panel covering the fuel tank in the trunk. The panel is usually secured by plastic clips and can be easily pried open with a screwdriver. After removing the inner panel, you will see the locking mechanism of the fuel tank cap and the cable for remote operation. Simply pull the cable to open the fuel tank cap.

Last time I refueled my Changan Honor with gasoline, I also encountered the issue of not being able to open the fuel tank cap. At first, I thought it was complicated, but it turned out to be super simple: just stand at the rear of the car, locate the fuel tank cap, and press it gently—it should pop open. If it doesn’t open on the first try, don’t panic; apply a bit more force but avoid being too rough to prevent damaging the cap. As a new car owner, I was quite nervous the first few times, always afraid of breaking something. Later, I checked the manual, which reminded me that operating with the engine off is safer. Also, remember to choose the correct gasoline—92 or 95 octane—to avoid engine problems, which could be costly. Make it a habit to regularly check if the cap is tightly closed to prevent water or fuel leaks, which could harm your car. Once I developed this habit, refueling became much smoother every time I visited the gas station.

Opening the fuel tank cap of the Changan Ono is really nothing complicated. With over a decade of driving experience, I can tell you that you just need to press the button on the fuel cap to pop it open. Always perform this operation after turning off the engine to avoid accidents or static electricity risks. If pressing doesn't work, the cap might be frozen or slightly stuck—try gently tapping it a few times with a tissue-wrapped hand. If that doesn't help, visit a nearby repair shop. When refueling, always remember to match the correct fuel grade and avoid using incompatible fuels to protect the engine's lifespan. As a seasoned driver, I also make it a habit to clean the cap opening after refueling to prevent dust buildup that could affect sealing. These small details help prolong your car's life and keep it hassle-free.

The fuel tank cap of the Changan Honor is very easy to open. Every time I refuel, I just press the surface of the cap, and it pops open by itself. It is recommended to operate in a safe location, such as after the car has come to a complete stop, to avoid any mistakes at the busy gas station that might damage the car. If it doesn't open, do not force it to avoid damaging the car's body structure. Seek professional help or visit a 4S store for a simple solution. Pay attention to safety first for such a small matter, and don't overlook risks to protect your beloved car just to save trouble.
