Attached ImageSo after moving the car around a bit while putting things back together, I noticed some oil on the ground. While this is not that unusual for a 914, this was tranny oil.
Thats when I discovered the hole this evening. I'd had the tranny worked over by a VERY experienced gentleman(whom I'll be calling in the morning).
It only has a couple of miles on it at the most, but it was enough to do the damage. My suspician is that the speedo gear has gotten loose and started backing out and jammed? I can see that the teeth are gone, and that the shaft has some wobble, as in loose. I'm hoping to be able to pull the housing, clean out the bits, and put on another donor housing? Can anyone confirm this?
