16:1 vs. 24:1 steering
I have a new PST 16:1 with manual steering and a 4 speed and love it. Point and go.
Replaced my worn out factory whatever, probably the same, but so much play.
I use the clutch to rock the car back and forth if in a jamb, like parallel parking, and when reversing turn the wheel the direction you want to go forward before you stop.
And don't back up until you can't go any farther, back up until you clear the front end.
