Re: how do i adjust my hood?

It's probably the springs, but the hinges could be tweaked, too. I am replacing both springs/hinges, but not yet done.

Saw a picture where someone put spacers (wrenches) in the open spaces of the springs that he was removing, which maintained the overall length of the spring and enabled their removal from the hinges, more easily. Opening the hood a little bit more would stretch the springs out and enable removal of the spacer/wrenches.

Paln heada. Avoid errors.
