Hot tip - testing speedo/odo

posted by  someone claiming to be broken login guy on  Fri Sep 6 19:22 CST 2002 [RELATED]

this works for dial-type, mechanical speedos, '73-'85

may also work for early ribbon speedos, not tested.

Chuck up a Robertson (square drive) #2 screw tip in the drill. it is REALLY close to the size of the speedo cable.

Operate drill in REVERSE.

Max speed on my drill is an indicated 60mph or so.

This lets you bench test the unit before installing.

A FREE tip from...
