Driving straight, my 31 steering wheel is at 11 o'clock rather than 12 straight up. It has no slop to left but much to right going straight. Sector cover nuts tight as well as box to frame nuts. With wheels off ground and pitman disconnected from draglink: end play in steering shaft, proper mesh tween 2tooth sector and worm gear, end play in 2 tooth sector check out on physical push/pull and rotate tests.

I've learned to drive carefully with the wheel position and right slop BUUUUT would like to correct. Any thoughts appreciated.
Ps-stalling on stops has been resolved with timing, raising idle, etc. thanks.
Pps-air mix on zenith inop but engine running okay so putting off rebuilding carb.
