This occured with my 7 also. Ended up replacing sterring rack. When I
took the rack out one of the ball bearings had dislodged into the teeth
in the rack.

>this morning when i took a right turn the steering wheel did not come
back
as
normal. then i noted that it was hard to turn the steering wheel and
when
i
did, the wheel stayed in that position (that i turned it to). this
made me
very nervous. but after just two blocks it went away and it was
normal
again.
when making a turn, if you let the wheel go, it returns to center by
itself.
the car is an 80 tr7 and does not have power steering. any thoughts?
thanks,
larry

Check the rack for lubricant. My MGB did this many years ago. A
relub
fixed it.
