I have some pictures of of the latch from my van on my website. Check the "Web Links" on the left of this page to see them. Take Care, Greg
i like an axhaust diagram for a 1999 chevy venture
It's a cable going to the latch, Looks like parking brake cables.
The Chevy venture does not have fuel reset. Some cars, like ford, kia, etc, has a fuel reset, but venture not.
how to take strut off of venture van would like to see diagram please
my hood latch did the same thing, and i found the only way to make it catch is by manually pushing the hood release button BACK IN before closing the hood and then it seems to work fine If you have to manually push the release back in to operate the mechanism, you have one of two problems. The spring on the hood latch is broken or the hood latch or release cable is corroded and sticky. Locate the hood latch near the radiator and spray it liberally with a penetrating lubricant, visually check to see if the return spring is broken. If the spring is good and the lubricant doesn't fix the problem you will need to replace the cable, which looks much like the brake cables on a bicycle.
The hood pull is located in the glove box at the top, just to the right works like a regular pull latch.
Bend it back or get a new latch.
There's a red latch on the driver side, beneath the steering column on the left. It looks like a hood pop, or a parachute exit.
Depends on the cause. If cable is broken, bend a coat hanger to snag the cable still attached to the hood latch and pull it out. You should be able to open the hood simply by pulling hard. If it has become disconnected, like I am dealing with now, it will depend on the make & model as to whether you can release the latch from underneath with a long screwdriver to having to unbolt the latch mechanism after removing the grill.
Try these: 1. after pulling the release handle, get out of car, walk to front bumper and make a fist, with bottom part of your hand hit the tip of the hood where the latch is, don't be afraid to hit it hard, if it opens then smile and spray the latch with wd-40 or something like that 2. hold the hood release lever and drive into a curb a few times, this will make the car's body flex and it may pop open 3. have someone help you. 1 person can pull up on hood (with screwdriver) and 1 person pulls the latch 4. Try and squrit spray oil on the latch under the hood , do not be afraid to use large large amounts. At the same as pulling on the latch have 2 people push down on the hood and let up , do this over and over.
dont think they have one like a Ford
there should be a bleed valve towards the bottom of the rad. It will look like a " T : .
