Hi,

I've recently noticed that the hood on my '92 240 is a bit misaligned.
On the driver's side the back part of the hood (when closed), where it hinges, is about one millimeter higher than the body. The other side sits flush whith the body.
After noticing this I began wathing the hood while drivng and it's a bit wobbly. It's jumps up while driving, and when there wind. After inspection it appears the hoods not shut evenly against the front locking plate, because of the misalignment.

SO.... Any tricky stuff on adjusting the hinges (those springs look awefully strong) and hood alignment?

Thanks in advance,

Dietbrand
