I got my car painted a while ago, the opening of my front bumper was not covered up so everything was painted red. i took off the front bumper took off radiator support and in order to get to that support i had to take out the hood latch (i painted everything black). when i put my bumper back on, i tried closing the hood like i normally do and it doesnt close with ease. you have to really push it down hard. whenever i prop open the latch from the inside, the hood does open right away. i have to physically open the hood, and then press the latch to open the hood.

also we dont have two radiators in our car right. what is that thing in front of the radiator that looks exactly like a radiator and the water pump is connected to it???

haha ya thanks justincapps for the obvious tongue.gif

alright guys thanks for info. so in front of radiator is the condensor. water pump connected to serpentine belt (w/e that is, but still got a while to learn bout cars) and the condesor serves a purpose for the A/C.

well my main question is answered yet. how do i go about getting my hood latch to loosen up a bit. i have to close the hood way to hard/or push it down hard to close it. and when i prop the latch from inside of car my hood doesn't lift up a little like it used to.
