Hi Mike,
After about the same number of failures I found that the problem was actual=
ly in the speedometer itself.
In both cases where I have encountered the problem the odometer itself was =
actually seizing causing the cable to sort of corkscrew and then the angle =
drive failed.
If you hold the speedometer loosely in your hands and use a drill to run th=
e drive, anticlockwise when looking at the back of the instrument, after a =
while you will probably detect resistance to turning.
I took mine apart and sparingly lubricated the odo and trip shafts and in b=
oth cases the problem was solved.

Subject: [Healeys] angle speedo drive BJ8
In the three years that I have owned my BJ8, I have gone through three righ=
t angle speedometer drives. The failure is that the short coil spring driv=
e from the transmission to the helical gear fails; it looks like a birds ne=
st of broken wires. I am aware of the critical spacer washer that must not=
be forgotten; in fact, this last time, I put in two spacer washers, trying=
to overcome any marginal tolerance issues. I also lubricated the speedome=
ter cable liberally with lithium grease.
I checked the autox archive and this question went around in 2009; at the t=
ime, the remedy was to use only graphite (no grease) to lubricate the speed=
ometer cable. Is this still the conventional wisdom? Any advice on how to=
clean out the outer part of the speedometer cable?
Thanks, Mike=20

number of failures I found that the problem was actually in the speedomete=
r itself.<br>In both cases where I have encountered the problem the odomete=
r itself was actually seizing causing the cable to sort of corkscrew and th=
en the angle drive failed.<br>If you hold the speedometer loosely in your h=
ands and use a drill to run the drive, anticlockwise when looking at the ba=
ck of the instrument, after a while you will probably detect resistance to =
turning.<br>I took mine apart and sparingly lubricated the odo and trip sha=
fts and in both cases the problem was solved.<br><br>Michael S<br>BN1 #174<=
