Opening gas tank door

Hello, I can't get the door to open. It was working okay but now when I pull the little lever. I hear a noise but nothing happens. I don't want to pry it open and break something. Is there any solution? The van is a 1993 XL

Re: Opening gas tank door

I solved the gas tank door problem. I did pry the door enough to get a screwdriver in and release the lock arm. Some how the cable got disconnected from the lock arm.Reconnected arm and cable and we're back in action
