parts to which it is fastened, can
make wheel nuts become loose
after time. The wheel could come

wheel attaches to the vehicle. In
an emergency, use a cloth or a
paper towel to do this; but be sure
to use a scraper or wire brush
later, if needed, to get all the rust
or dirt off. See Changing a Flat
Tire on page 5-70.
