Hi everyone,
I posted a WTB original clock (working) in the classified section today. I took the cover off of the clock and followed the repair tech article instructions (Pelican) the clock started to work intermitantly, so I decided to take it apart further to investigate...it is safe to say that this clock will never work again...the good news is that it will be correct twice a day....Oh well....you win some and lose some...

buy a new one from CB... unless you want it to be 100% original, the clock they have is similar but not exact...

the least you can do is to set it to "9:14" ... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) Andy |

The new replacement clocks look the same but are smaller. When you buy it ask for the reducers ring so that it fits in the original hole....
Personally, I have repaced the clock with something else....and I have replaced all the center gauges. Them new ones actually have NUMBERS, are accurate and WORK.....voltmeter, oil temp, oil pressure and head temp are the ones "I" like to see. Clocks ....you can put on yer wrist and are in newer stereos... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blink.gif) |
