| So my 20+ year old speedo cable finally gave up on me this morning. Then the parts store idiots trying to tell me to go to Mitsu for a new one. My ass! I looked up the factory part number and cross refrenced it on NAPAs site and gave the guy a balkamp number and VIOLA! they can have one for me by 9 am tomorrow. Fucking douche, it was fun screwing with the Vato Zone parts kid though. Just this side of whipping it out and smacking him on the forehead with it. (mushroom stamp) | |

| Changing the spedo cable is easier than the air filter. |

| Just remember "4th gear at 2500rpms is 50mph."

| I will have the new one in this afternoon. The hardest part is going to be getting the coupler through the damn firewall grommet.  | |

| Figured you would just pull the inside cable out of the outer protective cable housing. |

| Yeah, I pulled the inner clip off and went almost too easy. It was just held on with a light crimp and a spot of glue LMAO. Got the cable through and re-glued it and BOOM. Speedo works. Too bad I quit drinking. Some times I miss it. | |
