lifting the hood latch handle, or the
hood latch handle moves stiffly or
does not spring back as before, the

lubricated (see page 196 ).

and insert the end into the hole on
the left side of the hood.
To close the hood, lift it up slightly to
remove the support rod from the
hole. Put the support rod back into
its holding clip. Lower the hood to
about a foot (30 cm) above the
fender, then let it drop.
After closing the hood, make sure it
is securely latched.
