Inexperienced car buyers find it difficult to open the hoods. For example, the opening mechanism for the hood of the Volga, GAZ 31105, consists of many parts. In particular, from the catch catch, the bonnet lock, the funnel of the seal, the bonnet opening cable, the release lever and the fastening in the engine compartment.
Instructions
Step 1
To remove the hood, you must first open and fix it. Then pull out the washer hose.
Step 2
Next, use a lever to bend the two right plugs and remove the hose from the tee. The extracted hose should be pulled along the hood. After marking the position of the mounts, unscrew the two bolts and remove the hood from the mounts.
Step 3
When reinstalling, lightly tighten the fixing bolts, and then pull the washer hose on both sides of the hood and connect to the T-piece.
Step 4
When installing a new hood, rearrange all parts from the old one. It is very important to carefully fit the rubber seals between the headlights and the metal. When aligning the side mounts with the holes, be sure to align the rear in height and corners.
Step 5
Align the bonded screws on the fastening so that the hood is on the same plane with the fairing and fenders. Loosen the lock bolts to align the front. The lock itself should be in the uppermost position.
Step 6
Close the hood carefully until it stops until it is in the proper position. After that, you also need to carefully open it and tighten the bolts.
Step 7
If, after adjusting, opening and closing problems arise, loosen the lock and re-debug. To make sure that the work is done correctly, you need to raise the cover to a height of about 30 cm and release. If at the same time it slams under its own weight, then everything is done correctly.
Step 8
The hood is opened by pulling a cable running from the lock on the left side of the engine compartment through the front panel and attached to the lining. If the tension cable breaks, it must be replaced. To do this, the T-20 screw is completely unscrewed from the cladding, both internal radiator grilles are removed, the flexible cable sheath is removed from the locking mechanism.
Step 9
After completing the indicated operations, disconnect the cable from the fixing lever, release it from the clamps in the engine compartment and pull it through the front wall into the interior of the car. During installation, the cable must be laid without stress or kinks. This is very important as it is not regulated.
