Don't know what happened to the body of this post. Flying Alaska so I will fill in the blanks when on the ground.

So back in contact with the net. The other day I noted an intermittent horn issue and received several sage replies as to the potential problem. All to no solution for a horn that only works sometimes when the car is parked with the motor off but ignition on. My Pal Steve suggested I check the horn ring. So the other day I took off the mono horn button and to my suprise the steering shaft nut and washer were laying loose in the mono hub adapter. Noting was holding the steering wheel to the shaft but God and good luck. That, and the fact that my arm length to the wheel from the seat doesn’t allow me to pull back on the wheel.
In any case thanks to Steve the further chance of the wheel coming off while driving is now over. 43 footpounds later the wheel is secure. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
