Fuel Door

Just a friendly heads up. The pin the the fuel door hinge on Nissans tend to bind up and bend making the door become difficult to impossible to close. I periodically spray it with WD-40 and never a problem. The road salt helps to gum it up more easily. My brother had the hinge twist and the door moved over 1/4 inch and didn't fit in the opening and chipped up the paint.

There is a problem right^^ please through that crap in the trash and start using a lubricant. I hate how WD40 is advertised as a penetrating lube/ lube/ de-greaser, the truth is it was designed to displace water Water Displacement 40 and it is a crappy lube worthless as a penetrating lube but decent as a de-greaser which is why whatever it touches ends up rusting or wearing prematurely unless you apply that garbage as you say "periodically".
