Fuel door won't latch closed
Hi All,

Have an issue with the Fuel door on my Gullwing. It won't latch closed. Anybody else have this issue? Is there some easy fix?

Thanks in advance

can someone send some photos of what their fuel door and latch mechanism look like with the fuel door open? That may help me figure out what the issue is. Thanks again.

Newport,

thank you again for taking the time to do this. Mine looks identical. I think the pin mechanism rotates to catch the door and latch it when closed and that is not working on mine.

thank you again!
