Shamefully, I took a trip and forgot my key at home.  This is an '82.  I was
able to pop it open using a flat headed screw driver in the key slot.  I
thought for sure I'd be buying a new cap,  but NO damage was done!
Suprising, I know...

Subject: filler tank key

Hello all, I've been trying to figure out how to get the tank filler key out
(don't have the key). Is there a way to pop it out? On the other hand I did
the head gaskets this past weekend. I got Boston Bobs kit and had all the
stuff I needed. It went great except for a few stripped threads and time to
fix them.
