The key will only come out if the cap if latched in the lock position, is it on the tank and will not come off.

WD-40 does not work good on rusted parts, get some PB-Blaster.

i believe you have to push down on the cap to get it to lock. i don't think the key will spin otherwise

Are you pushing down on the cap to lock it in place?

yes you need to push down with the dust cap out of the way, if it doesn't snap over on it's own you may need 2 people, one to push down one to turn the key ccw, I would use some of the graphite spray available, goes on liquid then drys and only leaves the graphite behind.

Thank You all so much that's all it took was someone to retrain the brain. I got to the cap just as my husband was about to do something stupid with it. Key is out no problem cap still intact like new. Phew!!
