I think I will try to find a good used speedometer gear case with the shaft installed for the round keyed speedometer cable that I bought.

I was told by the business that I bought the new speedometer cable from that all I would have to do is the get a speedometer drive gear shaft part # A-17273-R and install it and the new cable would insert into it. Would anyone have one???

I have been working on the speedometer of my newly purchased 1930 Model A. The speedometer didn't work so I removed it and the speedometer cable. Neither the cable or the speedometer head would turn so I purchased a rebuilt oval speedometer and a new cable and housing. I tried installing them...

I am changing the gas gauge float and gaskets and looking for a recommendation as to clean and shine the instrument as long as it is out.

Thanks to all for your replies. I had two 5 quart jugs left over from one of the old farm tractors that I sold. So I now feel relieved and will use it in my 1930 Model A.

I am a new member of this forum and a new owner of a 1930 Model A sedan. I know this is a poor subject but I have some left over jugs of Rotella 10W-30 T-4 oil and wonder if it would safe to use in my 1930 Model A. Thanks to all.
