Do Hood Springs Wear Out?
Hello,
Do the springs that push the hood up wear out over time?
The other day i could not get the hood open, and i think it was because the springs seemed too weak.

I picked up a cable at a parts store and when i went to check the connections to see if the cable was the rig...
