Small plastic button fell in gas tank


Recommended Posts

I bought a new gas cap, and as I was trying to attach the tether to the gas cap door, the plastic button used to secure it to the door bounced sideways and I THINK went down the gas filler (wasn't able to find it anywhere on the ground) ... what kind of issue am I looking at? Is there a filter to catch it, or will I be looking to have it removed from the tank?

"Murphy's Law"  has nothing on me and my family... if it can go wrong, it will. It was the most "Brewer" thing that could happen. It was very cold outside and my fingers weren't working that great... button just slipped out from under the pressure I was putting on it. 

Thanks for the calming response - I was concerned about potential issues. And I will be more careful in the future... like I should have left the old cap on until I had the tether of the new cap attached.
