Bill,
Ran into such an issue. Turns out the problem was the new core was made too
long,
causing undue load an the speedo when correctly tightened. The knurled
nut/sheath
end is also capable of slipping it's position, as it is poorly crimped. This
can
give the same effect as a ong cable, a short housing. That was another source,
besides frayed core, that I experienced, but failed to mention.
Thank you.
Steve
