Have you observed the lock action with the fuel door open?

Two of my '95 850s had the same fuel door problem. Take a bright flashlight and look at the lock pin inside the recess in the fuel door. Both of mine had a poorly installed rubber grommet. Sadly, I did not notice the first one before I removed the motor - a mean task in a wagon!

I was able to fix the problem with a dental pic, if yours are the same, I'm sure you can find a suitable tool.

Both of mine have been working for more than a year.
