Speedo pinion gear
Marc,
Thank you for the information and your kind offer. We were able to purchase a new speedometer and it came with the proper adapter plus the little pinion gear. I also have the same adapter and gear on the original speedo. (that was vandalized) Ross Williams gave me a call to explain that the pinion gear should freely spin and that its shaft connects to the end of the speedo cable. Outer coupling then threads onto the speedo cable cover. Both of my pinion gears are seized into the so I couldn't figure out how they worked. Now it is clear and I will free up the shafts and I should be all set.
One last question, how much of the opposite end of the speedo cable should protrude from the speedo cable cover coupling for it to fit properly into the brass receiver, just to the rear of the transmission? Regards, Richard.
