[Removing/Repairing Gas
Filler Door Hinge: Tip from Bill Peyton] The gas door hinge will
break if pushed forward. This is usually done by moving around the car
with the door open, or by curious children. The repair job can be done
completely from the exterior.
The black plastic hinge is
held in place by four plastic rods. When pushed through the body of the
car, they expand four rubber sleeves located on the interior, thereby holding
the whole thing in place.
Remove as follows:
Open the door, and using a small
punch, push the four plastic rods through to the interior of the car. The
door will now come out. Note the position of the spring and the
hinge. Remove the spring from the old hinge, and either cut or pry our
the old hinge. This is a black plastic piece.
The ends of the new hinge are
tapered to make it easier to insert into the gas door. Clip the spring
back into place.
Now for the hard part. You will see on the new hinge
four plastic rods. These are held onto the hinge by four small
connections, all molded into a single piece. On the other side of the
hinge are four plastic “flowers” split into four pieces. You will need to
push the plastic rods through the “flowers”, once the “flowers” are pushed
through to the interior of the car. Since the rods are not free
floating, they tend to break off and fly away unless you hit them
squarely. If this happens, put a little taper in the ends, place them
back in the hold, and push them through. A punch and a hammer will be
essential. Alternatively, you can break the rods off while the piece is
off the car, insert them manually, and drive them in again with the punch.

Hello,
Unfortunetly Cadillac does not have an access panel for fuel pump access until the newer years. You will need to drop the tank. Also, don't let the tank come slamming to the ground, make sure you take it slow so you dont dammage the lines to the sending unit.
Good Luck!
