Weak hood hinge springs?

if you had the springs off you may not have put them back on correctly.

Springs were never removed from the hinges for the metal cleaning /dipping.......I will however have to remove the springs from the hinges to replace them. I have done it before, the procedure ranks right up there with replacing the trunk torsion bars.....be careful nothing gets pinched and wear safty glasses

I used to drive thru your town almost weekly when I lived in Huntington VW for 5 years.......always took the Micky Ds cut off at Portsmith to get to Rt52
