Few simple questions

I have a 87 F-250. Just bought it used. I am having trouble taking the gas caps off. I do the little "half turn" and try to pull it off and it wont come off. Do I have to push down first or something? Also I accidentally knocked the windshield wiper control **** off the switch and I can't seem to get it back on. I looked at it and it seems to be idiot proof, but it just wont go back on. I've even tried to force it on and it still wont slide on. I'm gonna feel really dumb if there are very very simple solutions to these. Too bad I lost my 91 Ranger to an accident. Loved that truck...

Mark: 1st of all welcome to FTE,There is lots of info. and a great bunch of people to help you with your questions. I dont have a answer for your question but I think if you went to the " 1987 to 1996 truck and van forum" they could answer all your questions a little quicker than the superduty forum could !! Just my thinking anyway! Good Luck with your truck!

ain't life great,
Lenny
