Noob question
 

Hello there,
I'm an owner of a S197 mustang and this is the only Mustang I've ever owned. Now my boss just recently bought an 87 5.0 andhe is asking me wherethe fuel door release handle/buttonis? He doesn't bring it to work so I can't really look for it. Any help with locating it would be appreciated.
P.S. a noob question, I know

RE: Noob question
 

Open the glove box and there is 2 buttons. One for the trunk and one for the fuel door. :)

Cool! Thanks. Nice car list by the way

NP...thanks as well. They're more like my PITA list, haha.

Foxes have a fuel door release?

RE: Noob question
 

HELL YEAH, and a trunk/hatch release[8D] AND mine has a supercomputer too

RE: Noob question
 

... they do? my fuel door just opens

RE: Noob question
 

Don't really know about your fox but I'm pretty sure all fox's from 84-93 have the same door release button. It's a solenoid that triggers the rease in the door unlike most cable ones in other cars. :eek:

86_5.0L does your car really have the release button or is that sarcasm, just curious. I've see the same button on many other fox bodies.

It looks like this...

My 93 doesnt have the fuel one just the hatch one. It seems like the later ones only have the hatch release since Ive seen a few early 90s models like that.

hmm my 1989 has the button, 80's cars were victims of the gas crisis
