Hi all,
While we were zipping down the road in "Little Bits", going to breakfast
at Spree '03, the speedo needle started jumping wildly. By the time we
got to the parking lot, it had wrapped all the way around past 100 clear
to zero. I know the stock 948 didn't get us much past the speed limit,
so what's up with that? After the car was shut off, the needle ever so
slowly unwound back around to zero. I checked the cable since and it is
lubed and free in the housing, so it must be in the movemnet inside. The
miles continue to count up, so my best guess is the movement needs
cleaned and or lubed. What lube would it need? or should it just be
clean and dry to turn freely? maybe graphite powder?
Thanks
