On modern cars the position of the filler cap is indicated on the fuel gauge.

Is it??? I never knew that.... maybe my car's aren't modern enough, ?

Here's an example from my car, the little arrow next to the fuel pump points to which side the filler cap is on ?

Or the petrol pump symbol will have the nozzle on the left or right,again to indicate which side the fuel flaps on.Didn't matter on my old Mk3 Zodiac as the filler was behind the number plate,slap bang in the middle of the car,same goes for a 1970 Mustang I had back in the day.
