haha. i have had similar problems. this may be a two man operation. one guy to pull the lever and one guy to push down on the hood at the same time. once you get the hood open (if you ever get the hood open) you may have to loosen the mounting bracket bolts to slightly adjust the positioning of your hood. watch your fingers.....i really don't know the answer to your question. maybe the latch under the hood is bent or..................i wish i was there to help you......sorry!
