Hi:

Followed the manuals adjustment procedure to the letter and improved the hood fitting little if at all, and chipped the paint at the cowling edge. Oh well sometimes you get the bear and sometimes the bear gets you. If anyone has further ideas to fit the hood properly please advise. Further, the hood hinges seem to push the hood up so it does not sit snug on the cowling lacing.

Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
