ok guys i searched this already but i didnt seem to come up with anything useful to my question, all of them seemed to be people with cables that fell off. my gas tank and hatch have always been hard to pop since i got the car. If i want to pop my hatch i have to pull the lever and wedge something under it to keep the thing up. It only seems to release at the top of the levers travel. theres only 1 cable that goes into the little release bar thing however... my question is, is there any way to tighten that cable like you can tighten the ebrake cable? is there any place to kinda snug it up?
