Hey so when I go and pull the release lever for the gas cap I get no tension and it doesn’t open. I have to push the gas lid to get it to open. What do I need to buy a spring or new cable? I examined the entire cable.

Same thing happened on mine recently - the spring fell off because the plastic clip on the inside of the fuel filler door broke. Fortunately, I heard it fall when I opened the filler door.
I tried to epoxy it back in place, but on the next fill-up, I again heard the spring hit the ground.
Plan B for now, to open the fuel door, I have a 6' dog leash I clip onto the under-dash release so I can reach the door to open it.
Time to look into plan C.
Edit - Plan C = Looks like the OEM spring from the dealer is an "assembly" which includes the plastic that snaps onto the door. Part Number 77360-0E010
