On the old gear the short cable that fits into the trans had sheared off, so I installed a new angle gear. Just to see if that was working I installed the short piece of cable, turned on the engine, engaged the gear and looked down and saw the piece of cable spinning. Then I took out the piece of cable and attached the speedo cable to the dash. It was not spinning. Interesting. So I removed the cable from the housing and fit it into the angle drive gear and no movement. Thinking it might be a problem of load, reinstalled the short piece, it spins even when I apply hand pressure to the end. Looking at the cable and the housing and the fitting of the cable up to the stop, etc. cannot figure why it does not spin. Before I buy a new cable and housing do any of you have ideas?<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Bob Begani<u></u><u></u></span></p></div></div>_______________________________________________<br>
