Re: Steering wheel mishaps
Common problem, I imagine.
Whether you want to scrap your wheel for the threading is a different
story but...
I had the same problem on my 86 5k. went down to True Value and picked
up epoxy-type (two tubes, plastic & hardener) stuff that was for
plastic only. Used a Q tip and refitted those little cylinders to the
wheel. 3 of them were broken, and the next time I pulled it after the
fix, only one broke again. Two removals since, no breaks.
Lastly, I would recommend letting the stuff cure for a GOOD WHILE
before putting the pad back on. Otherwise you will have a real PITA on
your hands.
