What I tried to do with my 122 involved using a square-bit chucked in a drill. Put the bit into the cable speedo receiver and ran the drill for a while. It spun at about 60 mph. It would have take quite some time to spin up to the correct mileage, and I gave up eventually. 122s only had 5 digit odometers anyway so it is much less of an issue on that world.

However...
I think the 86 has an electronic receiver, so you'd have to rig something up with the sensor... No idea what to try for that...
