Re: intermittent non-operation of '95 90q speedometer

[Michael Brittain Crowell <britt@Anis.com>]

I've got at 5kcstq about 2 years ago I had the samp prolbem. It seemed
that beatting on the dash worked sometimes too. Fixed it by checking out
the sending unit on the diff. It had just a little crosion on it. Spryed
on some triflow cleaned it up with a rag and pluge back in the conector.
Worked great till I broke the sending unit about 6 months later taking
out a CV joint!
