The little cable in the angle drive can snap, esp. if there is no lubrication down there. Take it out, if you are lucky you can just cut a section off your old cable to suit. Tunnel has to come off.

Hello all, This may be a related scenario. We have been experiencing a number of speedos that have been doing erratic behavior, a lot of bouncing and sticking of the needle, soon followed by complete

Almost always the angle drive. Anyway, that is what happened to mine. You have to pop the tranny cover off to get at it. John Sims, BN6 Aberdeen, NJ http://www.healey6.com I just got back from a 400

Strange. Unless they used a different gearset in the O/D the rebuilds shouldn't have caused this. I believe the angle drive uses a short wound cable similar to a short piece of speedo cable. If it's

Yes, not of the Nissonger problem but I was aware the cable core was designed to throw oil back into the box. I thought it was the twist in the inner cable rather than the weave of an outer cover. Ca
