My 1982 300SD (126) is suffering from a balky hood latch. I have searched this discussion group, and several other fairly exhaustively. I have done a google search, to no avail. I am hopeful that someone out there can help me. Specifically, the port side latch does not secure the hood. The starboard side works fine. My cables run free. I have cleaned the latches thoroughly to no relief. I am concerned that the hood will open unexpectedly. Thanks in advance.
