Fuel Cap Opener...
This works totally cool. I had been using a wooden popsicle stick to open my fuel cap. $1.50 + $1 shipping from rvplasticparts.com

I use one of those freebee aluminum beer cap openers. Serves a dual purpose.

I ordered 10 of them from rvplasticparts.com. Gave away 8 of them to my RV buddies. They work great..

Fuel Cap Opener
The twist off and discard orange plastic lever included with the HP printer ink cartridge works fine for me, has hook on horn end to catch cap lever. Carry on the start key chain.

I would if I could. but don't have that tech savvy! I use the 564 cartridges, lever measures about 5/16" x 9/16" x 2-3/8" with the colored inks, black ink lever is about 5/8" wide. I Drilled a 1/4" hole through side of the wide end for key ring. Hope this helps.

I use the stubby flat blade screwdriver I carry in my flight bag. Works great and I already have it.
