[Oletrucks] Speedometer question

[Kinderlehrer]

Was it working before you replaced the cable? Is it accurate while you are driving? If it's reading 20 MPH when you are standing still, it's likely not the cable. If it's reading high while you are driving, you may have to reset the needle. If not, you may have dirt in the speedometer - try a little compressed air, but not from your compressor, use one of those cans of air for cleaning computers.

On the subject of speedometers, does anyone know where I can get a speedometer gear for a Muncie 420 transmission? Unlike the ones that are readily available, the bullet threads into the transmission housing, that is, there are 2 sets of threads on the bullet itself and it is narrower than the more commonly available one.

I just replaced the speedometer cable on my 1950 3600.  Gauge works, but needle sticks at 20 MPH on the way down, never all the way to 0.  Any suggestions?

Thanks!
