Steering Tightness on 1996 civic ex
Hello!
My boyfriend recently purchased a 96 Civic EX (with 98,000 miles on it). He noticed that compared to my 97 Civic EX (with 109,000 miles), his steering wheel has much more play in it.
Now, this may be a really easy question, but can the tightness of his steering wheel be changed? He prefers how tight the steering is on mine, and when he asked a mechanic if they could change it, they said no. I feel like this is something that should be able to be adjusted.
Thanks for the help!

Yeah. Well, I think he'd probably want a solution that doesn't involve getting rid of power steering. Thanks.
