940 hood adjustment? 900 1993

Has anyone had experience adjusting the hood on a 940? My most recent purchase was sitting for a while, and the hood was very stiff opening until I lubed up the brackets and springs. It closes and latches just fine, but when you open it the trailing edge gets stuck slightly under the trim by the windshield, and there seems to be a bigger gap than normal between that edge and the trim. I figure I have to slide the whole hood up towards the windshield slightly, but am a little nervous about loosening all those bolts, the weight of the hood and messing up the latch. Any suggestions or reassuarances? This seems to be the one section the FAQ doesn't really address, unless I'm missing something....

Thanks!
