Ooh, clever.  A tear in the regulator diaphragm is easy, but that's diabolical.

ps - I put that steering wheel on the '89 just two-three days
ago.  And suddenly I knew what I hadn't known was wrong all that
time.  I guess I'll have to save the other one in case I ever try to
sell the beast as an authentic White Star, but in the meantime it's
now got a proper (i.e. wide and thin) steering wheel and I'm
smiling.  About that, anyway. ;-)  See you at BBTB?
