Hello, Just got my clock working after following the advice of d500neil on a thread from 2/26/2011. he suggested a bit of WD40 to the mechanism. I've done that, the clock is now working, although it is going way too fast. Any ideas on how to slow it down? I should add that there was no wire to the positive post of the clock, couldn't find a wire on the loose so just ran a jumper from the glove box light supply wire. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!

Location: Southern Sweden - Sturkö island		Pull out the adjuster knob and hold it in the outward position while turning the clock rearwards. As I remeber 12 hours equals 1 minut retard. Anyway, test it
