I constantly find myself having issues opening the engine compartment\sun deck pad to get at my motor. Has anyone else had this issue? If so, what did you do to fix it or can anyone recommend something to fix it.


I squeeze the handle underneath and it never releases... bad handle? When I look at, it does appear to be working correctly. Also, I loosened the bolt that the hatch grabs on too (the when that comes out of the actual engine cover), so its not overly tight and does have a good amount of play/wiggle room.
