aft engine hatch- too heavy - [email protected] - 10-19-2024

The aft engine hatch has four pressurized springs. I weigh 170 lbs and can just pull down the open hatch using all my weight. can someone provide a pressurized spring/strut part number if yours actually operates better than my description.
Thanks

What if you only had 2 hooked up ?  Possibly they were replaced with the wrong load capability???

I have replaced all four on 2001 #602 with AS RAYMOND # GSNI 3100150. Easy to lift now
