Hi Ray.? You and Rich Chrysler had the same thought, so I spent the morning 
diassembling the whole thing and removing the stator tube.? Frankly, the ST 
looked great.? The two pieces fit tightly together with almost no play at all.? 
I now think the play is in the trafficator, between the short tube and the 
plastic head.? I will have to disassemble that now, which means removing the 
trafficator for the third time.? Oh well.? By the time I am done I will have 
installed every component and subassembly two or three times.? The equivalent 
work of three restorations, the first two done incorrectly.? LOL.

Bill,

I had a similar problem which I think was the fixed tube connected to the
turn signal control head housing rotating within the stator tube.
Eventually it twisted the stator tube so much it broke the stator tube at
the end of the slot, which in turn eventually cut the insulation for the
horn wire and the horns would go off randomly.
I think it is time for a new stator tube.
