yeah the release inside the car can get stuck. psuh it back down to level and you should be able to close the fuel cap ok. if the boot still won't open use the key to open it and look for the little lever in the lock, move it to the opposite position - there is a catch which disables the remote release

you might have a broken cable, check on the right on the inside of the trunk and see if the cable is still attached, as that is the latch for the fuel door. At least you can always use the key to get into the trunk.. and if not start taking apart the rear seats to crawl into the trunk.

    • I thought DW was one of those things that people thought was the bomb ~10 years ago and since learnt not to use their stuff? Because it's not any better than a bunch of other options, and definitely worse than a number of other options.
    • There will be wiring, preferably crimping. The whole "skyline specific fuel pump" marketing that DW uses is a lie. It's just an ordinary fuel pump with all the ordinary bits that come with it. You still need to do all the wiring that you would have had to do otherwise if you bought something like a generic Walbro 525 pump.  Other things to consider (based on my horrible experience using DW pumps) * How is the fuel pump sock attached? On my old DW pump there was no locking mechanism, it was an interference fit and after a couple of years of driving, the sock came off. I now have a random fuel sock floating around in my tank =/ * Does the fuel pump have an internal check valve? My old DW pump didn't. Not having one is a pain. Just another thing to buy and faff about installing into your fuel line. I wish it was stated on the product box/online description 'no check valve'. The product description gave no indication if it had or didn't have one. I wouldn't have bought it had I known it didn't have an internal check valve.  * Consider the depth the factory fuel pump sock reaches in the tank. If you install the DW pump in the stock location and use the baby sized sock supplied, you will find yourself running out of fuel with like 15 litres of fuel still in the tank. + * Do you have any plans to use e85 in the future? Now is the time to install submergible e85 fuel lines in the tank.  
    • I have ad blockers and automation breakers (like NoScript) installed on all my browsers on all my devices. I have a PiHole at home and use other forms of DNS blocking to prevent the advertisers, and more importantly, the trackers from google, meta and all those other kunnts from watching what I do. They learn NOTHING! Or at least, as close to nothing as I can make it. I don't care if google knows that I'm searching for things. But they can get f**ked tracking my every move. Plus, when surfing donkey porn, the automation breakers help to prevent driveby trojan installers.
    • New DW300 Fuel pump, new fuel tank lid, new plastic lock all on the way!!! I'll be on ramen noodles for a week but at least my car will have a fresh fuel pump in over 20 years! Thank you everyone for your input ❤️
