Dumb question, which way do you need to turn the inside filler pipe to get it to extend? Mine seems to be stuck. I can't get it to budge more than a 1/4 in either way and it won't extend. Thanks

You do not need to turn it any direction to extend. You only need to turn it to lock in the extended position or release it from lock in the extended position. It appears something might have gotten down between the internal pipe and the outer housing. You might have to take the whole assembly off the truck, turn it upside down and tap it on a board or other surface that will not damage it and see if it comes free.

I had hoped I wouldn't have to disassemble the filler neck, but I had thought of that. Will attempt in the spring when it warms up I guess. I about froze my fingers off farting around with that thing yesterday.
