September 17, 201214 yr comment_627144 was running at 80 kph and shifted to 5th gear and the speedo suddenly wasn't moving. what could be the reason? btw i have a ke35 with a 4k engine Report
September 17, 201214 yr comment_627150 Chewed out speedo drive gear. They're only nylon and the metal worm will happily destroy them (or could just be worn down enough). Report
September 17, 201214 yr Author comment_627152 would this be costly time wise and money wise? Edited September 17, 201214 yr by lokie168 Report
September 17, 201214 yr comment_627160 Nope. 10 minutes, one socket size and maybe some multigrips. Report
September 17, 201214 yr comment_627162 Not the same gearbox but it's the same location and setup. Basically unscrew the speedo cable, undo the bolt and you should be able to pull the carrier out. The carrier will have the little nylon gear in it and you should be able to see fairly easily if its buggered. Report

September 17, 201214 yr Author comment_627265 will try to look at it or bring it to a shop. btw i'm having problems with my car. taking to long to start it. and when it runs it stutters then runs smoothly and then when i go to a full stop for a red light it stutter again then runs smoothly. do i have to correct the timing or just set the points?
