#86940, "hood wont open....any thoughts?"


          

Yeah like it says. My hood won't open. I havent got much of a chance to check it out, but when I try to pop it with the latch inside, nothing happens. Just like my shitty fuel door.

Anyone ever had similiar troubles?

Have someone lift on the hood as you pull the lever. If it opens, try twisting the black knobs on the sides near the headlights under the hood. They adjust the height the hood sits at....sometimes it helps to adjust those for it to open easier...just a thought.
