ok, i have a 74 2.0 teener. and when i go to press the trunk release button the latch pops, then unpops, the second i let off the button.

what causes this?

oh and i cant just use a key because i have a 911 reflector Porsche logo over where the key hole is...

arg.!

It could be a simple alignment issue between the lower and upper latch components.

It could also be a weak spring in the upper portion of the rear trunk lid latch.

Do you have a wing or tail mounted to the rear trunk lid? Extra weight may be tough for the latch spring to overcome.

just a couple thoughts.
