Subject:      Another Speedometer question
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

Hi all, Sorry Kate, your question made me remember a question of my own, so unfortunately I don't have the answer. (= Anyways, on my '80 westy the speedo works, but the odometer doesn't. The speedo works without a twitch, so I'm guessing that the odometer is mechanically broken and irreparable. Is there anyway to find out if the odometer works? Just to add a twist, in my glove box (where I found it when I bought Sunshine) is the original speedo and odometer. I don't know if the speedo on the original went (that's why I think it was replaced). Is there any way to test the original to see if the speedo and odometer both work? (without installing it) Basically I'm trying to get a working speedo and odometer at the same time as I like to know how fast I'm going and because I'm swapping engines right now and I'll need to know my mileage especially in the first thousand miles. Thanks all.

Peace, Love, and a Plethora of Good Grooves, Aaron (=

P.S. Not all of us are in our 50's....I'm 20 (=

P.P.S. Someone want to go to the package store for me?
