I'm going to unlurk myself for a quick question, which I suspect will have a 
more involved answer.  The steering lock on my 79 midget has suddenly decided 
that it wants to become difficult.  I have a great deal of difficulty turning 
it to the off (and key can be taken out) position.  It just doesn't want to 
turn.  I have tried shooting graphite in to the lock but is has made no 
difference.
The Haynes manual says that to remove the steering lock you must first remove 
the wheel and the steering column.  I'm sure that car theives have a quicker 
way of doing that, but can it be put back together.
Thanks in advance for the help.
