  1. These are the photos that were supposed to be in the post from CombatWombat. that he couldn't upload. In the first photo the lock has only just been opened. The white grease is clean, but not very 'wet'. The rusty metal is the ratchet spring. I was hoping to drill a hole to get some lube in next time without dismantling this, but there wasn't an obvious place where an access hole would lube everything (Silver1011). The motor isn't sealed, so any oil added may bu99er it. In the third picture, the long, pointy bit with a half sphere on its end is there to allow you to operate the lock manually via a rubber bulb that is sealed onto the upper cover. This is of no use when your fuel flap is stuck shut, except perhaps by removing the road wheel and arch liner and only then if you have long arms. The slender, pointy bit highest in that photo is the locking pin. Inside this assembly is the 'quick thread' (coarse thread) that slides the locking pin into place. The fourth photo is the re-greased assembly without the motor in. And the fifth is just as the covers are due to go back together. HTH.
