After I got the cable out, I found there is an inner pinion seal that is supposed to keep oil from even getting into the housing. Now to pull the seal it and see if I can find a replacement.Also found a '64 valiant that I pulled the speedo cable from. Was hoping it would have a Blue or Purple gear for the gearing change I am doing, but it was the orange one, just like I have. Need the 19 tooth one with the gear change. (Lowering from 2.93's to 3.23's). Will trade someone for an orange one for a blue one, if willing.--Tom On 3/30/2011 3:17 PM, Paul Lennemann wrote:I had a leaking sppedo cable (auto trans.)where it had been too close to the exhaust and melted the plastic coating around it.
