Gas Flap

Just noticed today after getting gas that the gas flap does not close tightly. What is supposed to be in there to keep it closed? I did not see anything obvious unless it is on the inside of the body.

Spring may be bent or about to fail.

Thanks for the link. It may already be broke. It just flops like there is nothing holding it in the closed position.
