*when putting the top back up pay special attention to the part of the top that fits into the far back ridge. sometimes it likes to pop up above the ridge while you are securing the latches. if this happens you can press it down and it will snap into place... just push down on the corner where it is disengaged as though you were giving your car cpr.

How do you put the top down on a 1998 Chevrolet Convertible
put it down
Unhook the latches holding down your top Slightly lift back the top from where it was latched down While it is lifted slightly pull the back part up and out of where it is hooked to the back Fold the back flap with the window up Use your key to unlock the top (located behind the drivers door) Pull up the handle under where you put the key in Lift the hinged lid behind your back seats Lower the back flap with the window While you are pushing the entire top back and down you have to take hold of the number 2 metal bar(located right above your head when you are sitting) and pull it forward so the top will go all the way down and fit properly. Once the top is all the way in close the plastic cover. If the top doesn't fit in all the way than you did not pull the 2nd bar forward. Do not force the plastic top to go down all the way just put the top back in place and try again. It takes a couple of times to get good at it but don't worry the 1st time is the hardest.
Right at the top of the engine you will find the carb immediatley to the right on the carb you will see a flat head screw this will adjust your idle , helps to have a second person on this.
above your head when you are in the seat is a bar,originally it had elastic pulls on it but these wear out quickly,to get your top to fold down properly you need to push that bar back(towards trunk/boot)when folding top down and it all should go into place ,hope this helps,i ruined a perfect top before i found this out!
