We have a 2010 diesel fiesta and I just went to fill it up and the fuel hose nozzel wouldn't enter.It would appear that the small metal flap at the entrance wouldn't open. Is this a common issue and what is the fix.And yes I did use the correct pump. Thanks

2010 is a change over year between WS & WT Fiesta, which one do you have as they are different and also what engine capacity diesel is it?

You will need to source the fuel filler pipe part number DK5142210G, unfortunately obsolete from Ford.

Thanks GT, looks like I will have to chase wreckers or after market. Does the flap at the entrance play a part in the system or just to keep debri out. Just looking at what I could use off another vehicle with a screw type cap. The car runs like clockwork at 137k so need to find a solution. Merry Xmas.

Does this look similar to what you're chasing or completely different?
