Thanks for the advice - and the links. The line drawing is very clear,
and I posted to the other link and got a further link to some pics of
quite a few CEs showing the lever jutting out from the grill.
The guy who had my CE before me must have changed to mechanism for a
cable type...? but there was no cable....
I'll look out for a standard bonnet release mech.
Anyone any ideas where I might pick one up? Are they available new?
Thanks again
