First question I posted was about my 1988 240 speedometer quit after removal to bypass the "chip". Art supplied me with a website that identified looking at the L shaped plug behind the speedometer. I removed it again, and sure enough, I had squeezed the plug when reinstalling and the blue wire prongs were, of course, squeezed on the non-contact side. I separated them and it worked again. Thought it was over, but no. First speed bump and no speedo again! Pulled the speedo again and looked at the plug -- no tension. Seems like I actually cracked it at the wire. Got another from a donor, spliced it in, and all seems well again.

Second question was about a newly acquired '91 240 ... running, but no belts turning at all. Turns out it was the harmonic balancer completely separated. Inside portion of balancer was attached to crank (thank goodness it wasn't the little nib broken on crank). When I removed the belts the balancer actually fell apart. Outer portion just hit the ground! No wonder the belts weren't turning! But the crank seal is pushed in at an angle, don't have a clue how that happened. Parts are on the way!

Anyway, thanks to everyone, especially Art!
