Lately, I've noticed if I don't pull really hard on the hand brake, it does not engage and the car will roll easily. I assume that like most cars, as the brakes wear and the cable stretches, the brake needs to be adjusted. Anyone done this?

Found the answer on roadfly. It's pretty easy, just pull up on the rear of the parking lever boot, then slide back to remove it. Two adjusting nuts (11 mm) are below the lever with 9 mm lock nuts. Requires an 11 mm deep socket, 11 mm box end, and 9 mm box end, and good dose of cursing to adjust thanks to the tight working area. Thanks for all the help.
