It's weird how the gear just slides off the end.
I just tapped the rod with a welding rod to make a very small barb that
keeps mine on.

Or get a new gear from Palo ALto Speedometer shop. About $20.

Subject:    Re: odometer stopped

If you don't want to spend the bucks right now on getting it rebuilt,
pull
out the console, flip it over and take the speedometer out of the
back.
Chances are the gear that rolls the odometer has wiggled its way out
from
the gear it connects with.  Just push it back in.

I have to do this every 2-3 months.  It is a pain.  One way to help
the
gear
stay on track longer is to never reset the trip odometer while you are
rolling.
