<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: SS427</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Make sure the hinge pivot points are not too well lubed up which people often do. They may also need to be re-pressed. I find this quite a lot of the time. Nothing wrong with the springs, just not enough friction in the hinge pivots. </div></div>

Most likely my problem. I use motor oil on the pivots.
