Are you at a gas station? Are you out of fuel?

Check next to the drivers seat next to the door sill. Should be two handles, one has a picture of a car with the trunk open, that one is the trunk release.
The other should have a picture of a guy robbing you, that would be the gas release.

There are variations. The Toyota Cavaliers have inside fuel door releases, but the regular US third gen models (at least up to '00) that I've seen don't have them. Models with keyless entry don't have the mechanical trunk release (again, the early third gen models I've seen), but later models have an electric release button on the dash. My '99 with keyless entry has no inside releases at all and the remote trunk release only works if the ignition is off. (I know this changed in '00.) Anyone have a scan of the "international symbol" of the guy robbing you that's on the fuel release lever? That would be great to copyright!

My fuel door doesn't have a release next to my seat. Oldschool style, get out and open it.

sounds like a normal situation to me.

I don't think the Z24 Models didn't have a lever beside the seat late 90's anyway.
