Hood will not lock down when closed. The cable seem functional. The hood goes as the way down. Lubrication is not a problem. Looks like a little wear on the latch in the slot/grove.
I don't really see an adjustment but maybe there is. It was hard to lock before this but a firm hand and correct finger placement on the edge of the front hood worked fine. I certainly don't want to lock it shut forever either. Would appreciate some help and ideas. This is a low milege '74 914 that has never seen a lot of wear or body work. Very clean car so I wonder what is up. TX Jim YELO914 IL |
