Mike, Thanks for the advice on how to test the cable's function. Any hints on how to get the cable back out of the housing so that I can test the function? Can I just push it out from the front to the back? The housing is stiff and I don't think it will gather up on the cable enough for me to thread it out. ymmv? ~Lu~ --- In BaadAssGremlins@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "mike" <Rmns10910@...> wrote: > > Lu, > Sounds like your cable was in a bind...it may still be okay...I say chuck it up in a drill and have some one watch the speedo if it works you may be all right , the parts store I used to work at sold replacement inserts you may be able to use if your housing is okay. > ymmv > mike > ----- Original Message ----- > From: lumina333 > To: BaadAssGremlins@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Sent: Thursday, May 18, 2006 10:33 PM > Subject: [BaadAssGremlins] Speedo Cable > > > While I was taking the 258/904 combo. out of Gremlin #2, I had a hell > of a time getting the speedometer cable out of the transmission > adapter piece.
