#1 of 6 Can't get the hood open. by concord26 Nov 05, 2006 (3:08 am)
My 97 Safari van's hood used to be hard to get open. Someone would have to bang on the hood while I pulled the release. I sprayed some WD40 on it but now I fear the cable may have slipped through the clamp. I can't get it to open at all! All this is fixable of course, if I could just get the hood open! Any ideas on how to get the hood open that don't involve a torch??

#3 of 6 1997 Astro AWD Fuel door by sighthoundlvr Jan 05, 2007 (10:16 am)
Hope someone has info on this, we need to replace the exterior fuel door, as it's rusted out. But I cannot find one on the web or at the salvage yards. Any suggestions as to where in the world I can find one, Summit white preferred?   "> Replies to this message: funkyllama (Jul 23, 2007 7:15 pm)

Replying to: dewbeans (Nov 10, 2006 1:28 am) I have a 94 with the same problem... did you ever get an answer?   I have to replace the bulb in the driver side tail light, but since I cannot get the door open, this is impossible...   HELP   Walt
#5 of 6 Repairing the Hatch/Door by mechone Jul 17, 2007 (6:26 pm)
I had this problem, I pulled the plastic trim that fits around the back hatch off, then used a screw drive on each side of the hach near the bottom to pop the latches back to release the door. After I fixed the linkage, I was able to put the trim back without to much issue.
