Step 4: Identify whether or not your stock cap has a cap retention ring, which prevents it from falling out. : If it does, then slip the tip of your needle nose pliers underneath the edge of the retention ring’s base.
Remove the retention ring and place it into your new gas cap. Twist the ring into the cap and see to it that the part of the cap that connects to the vehicle is located on the left side.
Step 5: Twist your new cap clockwise into place until you hear it click three times and then double check if it will fall off easily.
