In the game 'My Summer Car', players can find themselves struggling to open the fuel lid of their vehicle. This is a common issue, as the game requires players to perform a series of precise actions to refuel their car successfully. To open the fuel lid, players must first drive up to the fuel pump and then unscrew the fuel cap by scrolling down on their mouse wheel or pressing F. Once the cap is open, players can pick up the fuel nozzle with their left mouse button and begin the refuelling process. It is important to note that the fuel pumps can only be operated when the shop is open or if they have been unlocked by accessing a switch under the shop's counter.

The fuel cap can be opened by spinning the mouse wheel
If you're playing My Summer Car and are having trouble opening the fuel cap, try spinning the mouse wheel. This is the correct action to open the fuel cap, and you should hear it open.
Once you've opened the fuel cap, you can pick up the fuel handle with your left mouse button (LMB). You can then hover the fuel handle over the open fuel pipe on the car, and a fill bar will appear. If you need to fill a gas jerrycan, you can open it with the 'F' key, and then hover the fuel handle over the opening. Again, a fill bar will appear.
If you're filling up the car with the jerrycan, you'll need to pick it up and rotate it with your mouse wheel until the opening is at a downward angle. You can then hover it over the open fuel tap on the car, and the fill bar will appear. These steps are the same whether you're dealing with a diesel or petrol car and jerrycan.
It's worth noting that the fuel pumps in the game can only be operated when the shop is open or if the fuel pumps have been unlocked by pressing the switch under the shop's counter.

The fuel cap can be unscrewed with the mouse wheel
If you're playing My Summer Car and are having trouble opening the fuel cap, there are a few things you can try. Firstly, ensure that you are using the correct control to open the fuel lid. The fuel cap can be unscrewed with the mouse wheel by spinning or scrolling down on it. This action will allow you to open the fuel cap and access the fuel pipe.
Once the fuel cap is open, you can pick up the fuel handle with your left mouse button (LMB). You can then hover the fuel handle over the open fuel pipe on the car, and a fill bar will appear. This process is the same for both petrol and diesel cars.
If you are using a jerrycan to fill your car with fuel, you can open it by pressing the 'F' key on your keyboard. After opening the jerrycan, you can pick it up and rotate it with your mouse wheel until the opening is at a downward angle. Then, simply hover the jerrycan over the open fuel tap on your car, and the fill bar will appear.
It is important to remember to screw the fuel cap back on after fuelling your car to avoid any spills or leaks. Additionally, ensure that you pay for the fuel at the cash register inside the shop to avoid any consequences in the game.

The fuel tank door can be attached with bolts and painted with spray cans
In My Summer Car, you can find the fuel tank door (or hatch, cover, lid, flap) for the Satsuma near your grandmother's house. The fuel tank door can be attached with bolts and painted with spray cans.
To attach the fuel tank door, screw in the bolts. You can tighten the bolts as much as you like, but be aware that if you crash, the door might fall off. The more you tighten the bolts, the less likely this is to happen. You can also paint the fuel tank door with spray cans or at Fleetari's repair shop.
Once the fuel tank door is attached and painted, you can open and close it with the left mouse button. Remember to screw the cap in after fueling.
If you prefer the older, more rounded model of the fuel tank door, you can switch back to it by pressing Right-CTRL + M, finding the mod in the list (Fuel Cover), clicking "Mod Settings," and checking the "Toggle Old Model" box.
There are also other mods available for the fuel tank door, such as the Fuel Filler Door for Satsuma, which is fastened with bolts and can be painted with cans or in the Flitari repair shop. It opens and closes with the left mouse button.
Additionally, there are tuning details and mods available for the Satsuma in My Summer Car, such as a sporty interior and a mirror for the right door.

The fuel pumps can be operated when the shop is open or by pressing a switch under the counter
In My Summer Car, players can fuel their vehicles at Teimo's Store. The fuel pumps can be operated when the shop is open. If the shop is closed, players can still access the fuel pumps by entering the store and flipping a switch under the counter. There are two switches under the counter: one for the door and the other for the fuel pumps. By turning on the switch for the fuel pumps, players can activate the pumps and refuel their vehicles even when the store is closed.
It is important to note that the fuel pumps can only be operated when the shop is open or when the fuel pumps have been unlocked by activating the switch under the shop's counter. To open the fuel cap of the vehicle, players can scroll down on their mouse wheel or press the 'F' key. Once the fuel cap is open, players can pick up the nozzle of the desired pump by clicking the left mouse button (LMB). Aim and hold the crosshair over the open fuel cap to fill the vehicle.
After fuelling, players need to put the nozzle back in its place by clicking the left mouse button or by walking away. The fuel must then be paid for at the cash register inside the shop. Failing to pay for the fuel will result in a phone call from Teimo, informing the player that he knows they have stolen fuel. Consequently, the player will be unable to purchase anything from the shop until the fuel is paid for.
Additionally, players should ensure they are using the correct type of fuel for their vehicle. For example, diesel fuel cannot be used for the Satsuma.
