HELP: Gas lid stuck
Well, I recently just bought a roller from a guy and am stripping all the paint now. I just went to pull the cable to pop the gas cap lid and the cable is broke. What do I do to get the gas cap lid poped now??????????

Slip a piece of strimmer cable under the lid (windscreen end), hold an end of the cable in each hand and push towards the headlights.

I carry in my glovebox a length of string with a finger-loop in each end for emergency gas-cap opening when I'm on the road. Imagine being donw to your last two gallons when you decide to refuel at the only station for 50 miles and the cable snaps.
