His advice on lubing the point of connection between the speedometer and the cable was exactly right (though I did not believe it at first). One trick I used to diagnose this was to disconnect the cable at the transmission and chuck the end in a 3/8" drill. With the drill on spinning in reverse, it was relatively easy to try different ideas on what caused the noise. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- John M.
