It works fine on jackstands in gear with the engine running, but not
on the road? That is odd, and I've dealt with quite a few speedo
issues over the years.<br>
<br>
The angle drive requires a small washer in the adapter on, I think,
the OD side of the adapter (Moss# 324-720). I believe it's to reduce
wear, but could be a factor (without out it, the angle drive could
have issues, as Michael suggested). Inside the speedo, the cable
drives a magnet carrier, which drives the speed needle and a worm
gear, which drives the odometer and trip meter gears. Does the
odometer work, but not the speed needle?<br>

friend’s BJ8 speedometer is giving us fits. New cable and
angle drive didn’t solve the problem. We can get it to work in
the garage while jacked up but once on the road, nothing!
We’ve tried different combinations of old/new angle drives and
cables to get it working in the garage but we must be
overlooking something. <br>
Any suggestions are appreciated! <br>
