Title: Augusta Cabriolet Hood Adjustment Post by: Augustacab on 31 July, 2017, 04:47:53 PM Does anybody know if the Cabriolet hood spring is adjustable - it goes up very nicely and easily, but it is quite a handful to put down? I have oiled everything and it all seems nice and free just the spring is a bit strong. Any advice appreciated.

Perhaps modify one of the brackets? Title: Re: Augusta Cabriolet Hood Adjustment Post by: Augustacab on 05 August, 2017, 11:18:06 AM Thanks David, will have a look this week.
Title: Re: Augusta Cabriolet Hood Adjustment Post by: Augustacab on 28 September, 2018, 03:58:11 PM Not sure if anyone is watching this but hood spring adjusted today - they are on a square and who ever fitted it had too much tension (bit scarry getting the tension off!!) so both off and moved round one square - now a super balanced hood. The more I work on this car the more impressed I am by Lancia engineering.
