- I finally got around to doing some much-needed jobs on my 76 B and it has fired back with some ugly problems. I replaced the shocks I've had since 97 and couldn't even really test drive it because a

- The leak at the oil pressure gauge may be nothing more than the nut being loose one flat. Try tightening it (gently) before you go to the effort of removing the gauge. Removing the tach is the first

- Obviously, your wife is one of the lucky people whose 70 B has been converted from the original electric oil pressure gauge to a mechanical gauge. (The electric senders are notoriously unreliable an

- That did it. Thanks. I didn't realize removing the tach would be so easy. It's a lot easier than the speedometer because of that dreaded blade sticking down, also known as the bracket for the trip re

- Your cable is probably on the verge of binding up. You can try to lube it, or just replace it. If it does bind, and if you still have any of the elbow joints with the drive gears inline, you will be

- Hmm. Mine has exhibited this "feature" for 10 or 12 years, through removing the angle drive and replacing the cable. Go ahead and try it, but I suspect the speedo itself may need an internal cleaning
