Dave - Glad to see you solved the immediate issue.

For others - I second pushing down on the hood if there is resistance to 
pulling the release.  I also recommend a second cable clamp on the 
bonnet release cable, RFK836 - Trunnion Fitting at 
http://trf.zeni.net/TR6-TR250GB/327.php This way, even if the first 
clamp comes loose, there is a second one on the wire to stop it 
slipping.  This same page has RFT132 - Back-up Bonnet Release Kit, 
probably the same thing as Moss.
