STEERING WHEEL INSTALLATION

NOTE: To minimize corrosion and to make future removal of the steering wheel easier, apply a small
amount of oil or anti-seize compound to steering shaft splines and taper before installing the steer-
ing wheel.
1. Install the steering wheel (25) on the splines of the steering shaft (11). Be sure to align the match marks
placed on the wheel and steering column shaft in step 6 above (Figure 7-1, Page 7-3).
2. Install the steering wheel nut (18) and tighten to 13 ft-lb (17.6 N·m).
3. Install the steering wheel plate (19) and plate mounting screws (24) (Figure 7-1, Page 7-3). Tighten
screws to 16 in-lb (1.8 N·m).
4. Connect the spark plug.
5. Connect the battery cables, positive (+) cable first, and tighten terminals to 20 ft-lb (27 N·m). Coat ter-
minals with Battery Terminal Protector Spray (CCI P/N 1014305).
