   Gates locking gas cap

      I seem to only get it to open like once every ten tries.  You are supposed   
   to turn right until in rotates loosely (which is locked, ie unengaged) then   
   turn key left until it engages, some kind of snap, then push hard to unscrew   
   cap. THe last step is hit and miss. Several attendants said it is   
   "counterintuitive". ANyone know what I am doing wrong?
