Hood Adjustment?
My hood sticks up about 1/4" in the back by the windshield. I can push it down flush, but it comes back up on it's own. Is there any way to adjust this so it's flush with the cowl? If so, what do I do?
Thanks very much.

Re: Hood Adjustment?
The back of your ninges need to adjusted down. If that don't pull it down you need new hinges.

Re: Hood Adjustment?
Don't just adjust them and slam your hood. Make sure you have clearance between you hood and cowl.
