[Healeys] BJ8 Speedometer Troubleshooting

[john spaur]

Mike,

The angle drive is the same as the one on a BT7 it is repairable. You 
need to remove the disk plate and use a short section of speedo 
cable. If you don't have one that you can cut up I saw some after 
market cables in a national chain auto parts store the other day that 
looked like they would work. You may need to file one end of the 
repair cable to make it square. It's not very difficult.
