Sounds exactly like the problem I had. There is a pin where the back =
pivots against the base that holds the teeth in mesh, and that had =
broken away on mine. Unfortunately I didn't discover it until the seats =
had been recovered and were back in, so had to live with it. Next time =
I recovered them (the previous covers were rubbish) I found the problem =
and welded a cut-down bolt in its place, and all has been well since. =
Ironically I then discovered that the part is visible with the covers =
on, and could have been repaired the first time had I known where the =
problem was. More info with pictures here =

The driver=E2=80=99s seat back on my =E2=80=9971 B/GT will not stay =
where it is set. Anything more than moderate pressure will throw it =
backwards. Clearly the teeth on the adjuster are badly worn. Any =
advice for dealing with this?
