Another spring solution?

[Tim Webster <crabco@shaw.ca>]

To all,

Thanks to those who responded to my query re: how to unleash the trunk lid
spring's energy without a trip to the hospital or dentist.

A local Tiger friend saw my post and phoned me last night. He recommended
attaching a length of line to the rear end of the spring and then pulling it
away from it's anchor using one's body as a lever. It sounds enticing as there
would be no need to "regap" the trunk lid afterwards.

I'll give it a go.

Regards,

Tim
