Circuit/System Verification

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Cadillac ATS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:

This vehicle has a capless fuel fill design that requires the use of CH-44284-2  Fuel Flapper Door Holder to hold the two flapper valves open.

  • Install this tool so that the raised rib nests just inside the flapper door outer lip. The flappers will hold it in place.
  • Be careful the force of the flapper doesn't push the tool back out.
  • Do not insert tool any further into the fuel neck or it may get stuck or fall into the lower fill tube.
