Not a Case deal, but educational in as much as the stupidest things can muck up the works on tractors or cars. I got my 95 Ford Escort wagon back from my daughter. SHe told me the tailgate was stuck. It was not shut tight, yet it would not open. It just rattled. I spent an hour trying to figure out how to release the tailgate with no luck. Called my brother the body and fender man and he did not know either. Finally got a BIGGER wrecking bar and more armstrong. A friend put the pry bar under while I worked the latch. It popped open. The picture posted is the culprit. A small piece of packing tape. I still have a hard time believing that could keep me from jerking it open. Tailgate works fine now.
