I own a 1989 300E and the cap is released when unlocking the car via central locking.If yours is not open there could be a problem with your vacuum.

That doesn't help the answer. The manual way to do it is pull the up right part of your inner trunk cover back, revealing several boxes on a panel. Reach behind that panel and you will feel a knob. Simply pull that with a bit of force and open the gas cap. It solved the problem. Once it's open, you may want to oil the locking mechanism, that was the problem with mine and was fixed with some WD40. It now works correctly again.
