How do you open an engine hood that is stuck?

Answer by  dcrusher59 (590)

You can open them in many different way's but i would assume you don't want to do it without damaging your hood. Assuming it will at least unlatch and open about two inches you can stick a screwdriver inside the locking latch and slide it out from under the hood catch. If that doesn't work crowbars work great.

At hood release use pliers and pull on the cable itself. The cable runs along the inside of the fender. If that fells,crawl under car and pull on cable.

Find the main release cable and pull it somehow other than with the handle. Usually you can reach it or the latch from below with a bit of effort.
