Ok folks - next on my to do list is the speedometer. There are really only 3 points of possible failure:
The sender gear The cable The speedo itself The old car was working when she went to sleep so I can easily swap out parts. Whats the most likely place to start? |

can't you test the speedo by spinning the "piece on the back where the cable fits in" with a drill? some small device chucked into the drill and inserted where the cable fits in.
