You wanted a horse, but got a goat. Nobody wants a goat....  Group: Members Posts: 2,861 Joined: 12-February 12 From: North Shore, MA Member No.: 14,124 Region Association: North East States   |
Any ideas what might be up here? Obviously the cable is turning. Is there a little plastic gear inside the guage that connects the two that could be broken?
Thanks John |

QUOTE(euro911 @ Feb 7 2014, 12:02 AM)  This is the gear That's the one that is slipping. I just fixed mine today. I taped the rollers together securely. Pulled the outer gear by prying under the spacer carefully. My solution was to pound the end of the shaft to oval it out a little bit. I used the thin side of a bodywork dolly as an anvil and a few hammer taps to re-seat it in the inner gear but it works nice. |
