[DeTomaso] Tic-tic-tic from my new speedo cable

That would indicate a suboptimal cable routing. Check for tight bends or
pinched cable.

Hi All



Long story, but I finally connected my new speedometer cable after my old
one broke last year.



First drive with the car and I hear a "tic-tic-tic" from the speedo, and the
needle is rather unsteady. At first I thought I had a rod knocking or
something, but it is not engine related, it is speed related, and it comes
from the speedometer.



This is typically a sign of impending speedo cable failure, right? Is there
anything that can be done or adjusted? I don't think I have cross threaded
anything anywhere...



Thanks!
