Bonnet prop spring

Post by tommachefski »

Hello
Please can someone answer a really stupid question....I cannot work out where the bonnet prop spring goes, mine is missing and I have 1 hole on the lower arm and no evidence of another?? If anyone could upload a picture I would be most grateful.

Many thanks

Chris

There is a hole in the lower arm and a bracket on the bulkhead midway between the arm and the fuel pump

Don't take this the wrong way pls as I am just interested to know, but, you were the one who asked for advice so why have a go at someone who writes to help you out?

Hmm - he just didn't seem to 'get it' - maybe he will return with a new disguise, and be a wee bit more friendly! :roll:

Just clicked back to see when he joined and number of posts, out of interest, but realized that these stats must have disappeared with the deletion!
