Subject: [Mgs] B/GT seat back problem - update
Yesterday we partially dismantled the driver=E2=80=99s seat back on my =
=E2=80=9971 B/GT to see why it would collapse backward with even =
moderate pressure. Alas the problem is not the same or as simple as =
Paul Hunt's=E2=80=94although a previous owner clearly had the same =
problem as Paul, since the same pin was crudely tack-welded in place on =
my car! Possibly from 50 years of failure to pull the adjuster =
lever far enough before pushing the seat backward to disengage the =
teeth, both sets of teeth are worn=E2=80=94and they're also not aligned =
on precisely the same plane, so they're worn at an angle. =20
