Default Re: speed odometer cable repair

A lot of times the cause of broken cables is that the speedometer head is turning too stiffly. They get tight over the years as the grease dries out and the pot metal parts swell. If you can't spin the cable with the tips of your fingers, the head needs service. About half of the speedometers that I get in are too tight on the drive.
