Hi,
On my Datsun powered Morrie,
I've replaced the speedo cable,
but brfore install ing I ran it on an electric drill
and the speed worked fine.

On a road test the speedo
is still not working.
Is it common for the geabox
sender (?) were the cable
connects to to stuff up?

Is the inner cable long enough? I've seen a few different lengths of Datsun cables.

The gearbox end is usually reliable in my experience. Is it the type that has the little raised section on the inner cable to locate in the gearbox?

Yes I made sure the little key way was
in the gearbox thingy.

I might take the cable out of the speedo
and se if it spins with the car up on axle stands.
