Gas Cap Door

[jimmy k]

I went to fill up the car yesterday, and tried to open the lid, but it seemed stuck on something. So I closed it and tried to open it again and it got stuck at the same point. I thought the tether that attaches the gas cap to the car might be getting pinched somewhere, but I couldn't see it. So I pulled slightly harder and heard a pop. After muttering a few expletives, I noticed that the fuel lid did not stay open, when I opened it all the way.

I had to hold the lid open while filling up. After finishing, I closed everything up and made sure that the fuel lid locking mechanism was still working, which it was.

What part did I break and is this an easy fix?
