Then I feel the adjusting collar on the steering wheel is frozen. I can turn
it with pliers but not by hand. What lubricant would you use on Bakelite?
Does the tightening ring screw all the way off?

The collar on my wife's 3000 is frozen--has been since I got the car. Since
the wheel is adjusted all the way in I have never attempted to loosen the
locknut with channel-locks or a pipe wrench as I was afraid to crack the
bakelight
but I am very interested to see what is recommended. BTW is this a
"righty-tighty" deal when facing the wheel or is it the other way around?
