Gas Cap Door Solenoid

Rexter, I did it ! send me a PM with your phone and time zone, and I'll walk you though it. It's not to bad of a job.
 
Just wanted to say thanks to @xlrlist01 and the post #9 about the solenoid. I pulled the inner fender and popped out the return spring and found it was good and strong, similar to my Z06 parked along side the V. I then dug in and pulled the solenoid out just bit and used some LPS-1 and voila! The catch pin pops back out every time.
 
Easy fix. Squirt WD 40 around the square door make sure it squirts inside. Get a friend to push open the door as you hit the door opener!
