Am I able to change the mileage...
kent400:
Thought I had better stick my head above the parapet. I have the pdf and I've quite happy to email it. Fairly easy to adjust the mileage but as Pat pointed out the speedo has to be dismantled to do it. I don't really recommend dismantling instruments unless you have some prior experience of this type work. It's all too easy to loose a tiny clip or cause some other damage. Quite a few instruments have turned up on my door step dismantled where the owner had be unable to get it back together. As for the band, making a decent job of removing and refitting that defeats many. I've made tools to remove and refit those and even on the underside you have to look hard to see it's been removed. You won't see any evidence on the top of course.
Taking the speedo apart will give the opportunity to clean the inside of the glass, clean/relub the mechanism, check the inside of the base for rust and re-zinc it if required.
My email for the pdf if required is: peter@:harptree7.freeserve.co.uk

Great! I thought I was going to look like a dodgy second hand dealer asking such a question!
I will drop an email through and get a copy of the PDF if that's okay? Not to say i will actually undertake the work! My job is risk management so I will have ton take a view of the likelihood of a positive outcome before starting anyway! ;)
Cheers all

If you ask Peter he will sell you a set of decals to re do the faces, very easy.
I did mine a while ago, re paint the outer bezels (satin black not gloss) and a bit of luminous red paint for the ends of the dials and they look like new.
