Hood wobbling...

[CombatMedic80]

Gentlemen!

Ive been noticing a wobble in the center of my hood while I’m driving. At first, I assumed it was because I didn’t have a hood insulation... but after further inspection, it’s looking like there is some adhesive or spot welds that have broken free under the hood.

Anyone know what this adhesive is? Or if that’s even right?

It is an adhesive and that is a common problem as the stuff ages.

Thanks brotha... do you know what it is called?

This will fix it right up. Have to buy the Duramix gun though. If you don't like this option or something similar then just don't use anything that grows as it cures. You don't want to create a bulge in the hood.

Good idea to fit your air grabber in there if you have one before glueing it down.

Thanks ACME... you’re a gentleman and a scholar.

I don't know if I'd go that far

No need to expedite the inevitable. He'll catch on to me (and the rest of us) soon enough...
