And yet there is usefulness there. Cut off 6" of the speedo cable and 
save just the inner wire portion. Use that to stick in the speedo and 
twist it with your fingers. If there's any tightness or sticky spots 
anywhere, you've found your problem. It should spin almost completely 
free. The only thing you should feel is the viscosity of the 
oil/grease in there.

Always save that top 6" of speedo cable, because they make great test 
tools. If you accumulate more than one, save to others to give to 
other owners who can use one.

Daniel, I'll look in my stash to see if I have something I can send 
you as a temp.
