I believe that the 88 was a cable speedo system. This sounds more like a kinked speedo cable. As the gearbox tries to rotate the cable it winds up like a spring and then snaps around. The fuel and temp gauge seem like an electrical connection problem. Ian Mary Parry wrote: > I am also curious to learn more...
