I have a question about removing the steering wheel. But surprisingly it has nothing to do with that big nut. I need to remove the steering wheel to get at the indicator switch - the indicators are working only intermittently and I think the contacts need cleaning. I got the big nut off but now I ca...

Unfortunately I don't currently have anywhere dry to store her, but I put a cover over her last night, and it seems to have been enough to dry things out (maybe - I st...

I was replacing the bulb in the front left-hand-side side light, an...
