Hello folks, first time on the forum
I have a 1949 buick Roadmaster series 70 that i just got out of storage here in upstate ny.... it was a bucket of rust 4 years ago and i restored it.... not completly but it looks good and is a good driver but last summer was my first summer on the road with it and it mostly held up fine....
but at the end of the summer the speedomoter started going whacky.... it started makeing an awful racket and the needle started jumping all over the place.
I reached around and unscrewed the cable and fiddled a bit thinking it was just slipping and then re attached it making sure it was seated proper...
but it still is not working... doing the same awful noise and needle jumping all over the place
I am hoping someone here can give me a fix if they recognize the problem or is the speedomoter shot?
Thanks@
Keith
