I had the conditon you discribed with =
the shaft
working to the left. I tried crimping the shaft where it exits the right =
side.
On mine the odometer then worked for a while then quit =
again.
The pot metal gear was then slipping. I =
could not
get my speedo needle off to take it all apart. Somehow, I can't remember =
exactly, I got to the spot on the shaft where the pot metal gear =
rides.
Maybe(?) by pushing the shaft to the right enough to slip some wire =
cutters in
and put a couple small crimps in the location where the pot metal gear =
rides.
Then I pushed the shaft back into the pot metal gear. 3K miles and no =
trouble
except for noise from the speedo or cable when it's less than 15 degrees =
