Subject:Sporadic Speedometer ('80 Westy)
From:Jason Milam

Howdy Volks.

I dimantled the instrument cluster on my '80 Westy to figure our why my
odometer wasn't working. A gear had slipped out of place. I gently pushed
the gear back and reassembled the thing. Now my odometer (and trip meter)
are working perfectly (for now), but the speedometer works only
sporadically. About 50% of the time it seems to be working fine; 40% of the
time  the needle doesn't even budge; and 10% of the time  it does something
in between.

Any thoughts? Is there something I should have done but didn't? Is there
something I shouldn't have done but did? Thanks.
