Rich, I hope you can find the article and I hope it helps. Your solution to extend the primary latch pin one full turn out is off target. That would sort of raise the hood one full turn, but actually what happens is it would put the safety latch even further in tension.
So instead consider turning the primary latch one turn IN. Except that tries to pull the hood further down and if the bumpers at the corners are set right, it just makes it harder to close the hood, and makes the tension on the primary latch greater.
So the real issue is to somehow move the safety latch. But I see no adjustment for that other than bending the catch bracket on the bonnet.
Nick, Thanks. The primary latch works well, smooth, and clears the hole completely
