While refueling, let the cap hang
by
the tether below
the
fuel fill opening.
To
take
off the cap, turn it slowly to the left
(counterclockwise). The cap has a spring in it;
if
you
let
go
of the cap too soon, it will spring back to the right.
If you get gasoline on yourself and then
something ignites it, you could be badly burned.
Gasoline can spray out on you if you open the
fuel filler cap
too
quickly. This spray can happen
if
your
tank is nearly full, and
is
more likely in
hot weather. Open the fuel filler cap slowly and
wait for any “hiss” noise to stop. Then unscrew
the cap all the
way.
Be careful
not
to
spill gasoline. Clean gasoline from
painted surfaces as soon as possible. See “Cleaning the
Outside
of
Your Buick” in the Index.
