    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Speedo drive

My speedo drive makes a click click noise as it turns. I don't think it is normal. I've tried to take it apart to inspect it, but I couldn't get it open. The c-clip came off fine, but nothing would pull out. Any tips or tricks?
 
If you look around the output shaft, you will see a nylon retention device that has a couple of slots in it. Since the shaft comes up the middle of it, you will need some small needle-nose pliers or snap-ring pliers to turn that out. Once it is out, you can pull the shaft out. After the shaft is out, you should be able to open the rest of the drive. If I remember correctly, there is the drive tang, which is held in by the clip, a spacer, a plate that covers everything and a gear. Look at a parts fiche, you should see all the parts.

Thanks Steve! I thought you might know how to do it.

Yup, comes apart fairly easy once you get into it. I have 3 of those and they all have a slight click to them. All have been cleaned and regreased as well.
