wolfman Posted July 5, 2008 Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 The fuel latch on my g/f's ex500 is stuck! The key won't turn all the way to open the latch.. We've tried removing the allen bolts holding the latch down but apparently it can't be removed that way.Ideas please! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
