When we arrived at their car we attempted to insert the jerry can nossel but noticed that the small flap inside the fuel hose wouldn't open and appeared locked. We tried repeatedly locking and unlocking the car, turning the car on and off and nothing. We even looked in the boot where there is a pull cord that looks to go to where the fuel pipe is but pulling this did nothing.

I realise that this will likely need a mechanic but can anyone shed any light on it?
you should have a little white funnel in the standard toolkit somewhere in the rear of the car for this purpose.
