after having palo alto servicing my speedometer, I decided to replace my speedometer cable as well.
there is a very informative description how to do this here in the forum.
http://index.php?topic=2566,cable
i came almost to the end but have a problem to finish my job.
the single bolt what was holding my old cable had to go out, that I could remove the cable from the tranny.
now when I put in my new cable, i push it all the way to the end, as far as possible. I screw in again the bolt to secure the cable, but it is still loosen and comes out easily.
should I remove the rubber protection at the end of the cable?
please see my pictures and give me advise.
thank you!
