How to open the fuel cap on a Ford Focus

Model: Ford Focus MK 4 - Years 2018-2025
Part: Checks and maintenance

Opening the fuel flap on the Ford Focus is a very simple procedure that you need to perform every time you need to refuel. All you have to do is push the flap inwards, and with this slight pressure, it will open. Once open, you can remove the cap, hook it onto the designated hook, and refuel. After refuelling, close the cap and then push the flap inwards to close it. Although it may not seem like it, this procedure prevents fuel theft, as the opening of the flap is regulated by the central locking system.

This will allow you to locate the pipe through which the brake fluid flows: by inserting the other end of the pipe into a container, you can press the clutch pedal to expel all the fluid until it fills the container.
