Mercury Speedometer
I got the instrument panel opened up on the 52 Merc (carefully) today and can see what might be the problem. Seems like the return coil spring on the needle is all wound up, possibly twisted off or disconnected. I can't get any movement at all on the speedometer so I don't know if it has seized up or what. Its a King Seeley as are all the instruments. I'm thinking I will just clean it up, put it all back together and be content to live without a working speedometer.
