Default HELP!

My son purchased a used 2004 S2000 without an owner's manual. He is stuck at a gas station trying to fill up but does not know how to access so that he can fill up? What's the trick for filling up this car?!

Debbie

Debbie, if he doesn't know where the fuel door opener is, he may not know about the middle compartments. There may be an owners manual there.

Where else should they put the gas door? I don't see anything wrong with where they put it becasue it is near the gas tank. Most cars have the gas door on the rear fenders because the gas tank is in the back for front-engine cars; some (mid-engine or rear engine) cars have it on the front fenders. But I don't see why putting it on the rear fender of the S2000 is "silly".
