the gas tank door froze ((( - Toyota Corolla, 1.5 liter, 2001
The day before yesterday I washed the car, and it’s -15 on the street, of course, they didn’t blow anything and didn’t lubricate it. very rushed! In general, today I arrived at a gas station and it turned out that the gas tank door does not latch, the latch itself is frozen and does not move at all! ((I can’t imagine what to do! (((
Mileage: 101.970 km
after all, it was made to pour into a frozen well!
or go to the parking lot to thaw yourself)
well, it seems that on foreign cars there is somehow a tortuous neck and it goes into a cone that you won’t merge! but they won’t merge with us, so why throw a thread into the tank!))))
it happened to me, then I just came to the car wash and said that after you good guys I would drive without gasoline. they looked that they had my number recorded (that they really washed) and defrosted it for free =) they blew it and burst out something. now it's all tip-top
I warmed everything with a sock with hot salt, maybe it will come in handy for someone!))))
cool to you!))) and we have been sweeping for 2 days! and tomorrow night they promise -30 again! (((((((
Listen, you are tough with the weather - I washed the car in a T-shirt this weekend ...
you're right, it's not worth saving on tires! tested for yourself! schaz looked at the forecast on Yandex tomorrow at night -41 (this is tin) (((((((
you know, in winter more than half of our people don’t even change their tires))))
but this is a double-edged sword… I’m for safety!
fuck, last year we had -20 for a week, so people didn’t get out of the house, on the roads - grace!
not long ago the same situation was, the fuel arrow fell, I drove up to the column, I can’t open it, but I need to refuel, without hesitation I decided to breathe on it, breathed for 20 seconds, opened, then, I try to unscrew the gas tank cap, but alas, I was waiting for me surprise, the ring that spins on the tank lid, which is attached to the iron lid, also froze, it's -30 outside, what should I do? yes, the same as with the lid, breathed, and opened it)
