Here is a REALLY stupid question....

Ok I have looked around now and cant figure this one out. I have been forcing the fuel door open on my 88, but isnt there some sort of release inside the car? If so, where is it? I know it sounds stupid but damned if I cant find that release.....

Damn I never even opened the glove box. lol. I have been opening the hatch with the key and I pried the door open. Oops. I guess I should investigate the car more. [:-]
