Kinda stupid question about our gas "door"...

Do they have "flaps"?

When filling up today I noticed that there was no "hinged flap" in the opening where you insert the fuel nozzle for the gas pump.

I could have *sworn* I had one before, but it's not something I paid close attention to, so I'm sure our cars don't have this flap, but my curiosity is killing me....can someone take their gas cap off and take a look and see if there's a flap?

Thanks!

Nick

I have no flap. Just la little hook to attach the wire while filling, but it does'nt hold very much. Often drops and the cap hits the paint.

I'm a confusing the hook with the FLAP ????

Okay, I give up. Why does your car have two filler necks?
