94 Explorer XLT gas door issue...?

[michiganexplorer]

Hey, sorry if this has been asked. I couldn't find it, though, so I'm asking myself. The fuel door on my '94 Explorer XLT won't close. The spring is worn out so I was wondering if I could just order it or if I have to replace the whole assembly. If I have to replace the whole assembly I want a locking door so links to some decent ones would be appreciated. Otherwise, I just need to know where to order the spring from. Thanks guys!

Found it!

Been thinking of doing this mod to my 94' (also would like the lock)

Guess now I have to.

Part #: AMI 6054KL
Ring Outside Diameter: 6-1/4 In. good!
Door Outside Diameter: 4-1/2 In. good!

Fitment for this part number is for a 2002 Explorer. They say it's a "no-fit" for 94', but 6.25" is 6.25". So the the factory mounting holes may be different. Nothing the drill bit can't handle.

Hm, don't know why I was thinking it was a 94 (it's a 93) but I'm gonna tally it up to being tired. Specs on the issue seem to be the same anyway.
