The gear isn't supposed to be on the end of the actual cable. It will be
inside the transmission. The cable should be square on the end that meshes
with the plastic gear set on the inside. If you pull the cable, you may see
a small plate on the inside held with a couple screws. Remove this plate
and you should see a couple of plastic gears, one of these gears may be
stripped. They come in different tooth counts to calibrate the speedometer
and they come in different colors to correspond to tooth counts. Of course
i'm unsure of what tranny you have but the above could be true in your
case, could be wrong but it may help.. .
Please let us know what tranny you have--original or not.. --wayne
