2 Answers
To open the fuel tank cap of Chevrolet Cavalier: The fuel tank cap switch is located below the left side of the driver's seat. Pull it upward to open. More information about the Chevrolet Cavalier fuel tank is as follows: 1. If the fuel tank cap cannot be opened, you can start from the trunk: First, remove the lining board covering the fuel tank in the trunk, and you can see the locking mechanism of the fuel tank cap and the pull wire for remote operation. Pull the wire, and the fuel tank cap can be opened. If it doesn't work, press the movable part of the locking mechanism while continuously pulling the wire, and the fuel tank cap will open. 2. The fuel tank capacity of Cavalier is 41L, and the fuel tank is made of plastic. Currently, most vehicles on the market use resin fuel tanks. Almost all European and American vehicles use resin fuel tanks, while some Japanese and Korean vehicles use metal fuel tanks. In addition, many early vehicle fuel tanks were also commonly made of metal.
I've been driving a Chevrolet Cavalier for a while, and the fuel tank opening method is actually quite simple. After starting the car, look down at the door panel area near your left leg in the driver's seat, where there's a button marked with a fuel tank icon. Press it, and you'll hear the sound of the fuel tank cap unlocking. Then, get out of the car and walk to the rear, gently twist open the round cap at the fuel tank position. Don't rush the first time you operate it; carefully locate the button to avoid accidentally pressing other switches. The design is quite user-friendly and easy to get used to. If the button doesn't respond, it might be a switch issue or a blown fuse, which requires professional inspection to prevent fuel leakage. For daily maintenance, it's recommended to regularly clean around the button to avoid dust buildup affecting its function. Always remember to turn off the engine before refueling to ensure safety first.
