Subject:      Sticking Spedometer....

As the title says, the speedo on my '81 Vanagon is sticking...it's pretty strange seeing it read 55mph while I'm stopped at a light... :-) I'm wondering if some WD-40 sprayed into the area where the cable comes in the back might fre e it up, or should I also spray in the front on the needle axle. Is WD40 the best type of lubricant, or should I use graphite or something?

Any ideas appreciated, Andy
