First off thank you for the replies. I have figured out the problem. I had to pull out my transmission for a noise problem. With the trans out I have plenty of access to the torque tube. The snape ring that holds the speedometer gear had come out of the groove in the drive shaft. This allowed the gear to move back and forth on the driveline thus not always engaging the turtle gear for the speedometer. Have ordered a new snap ring and will install while I have the transmission out. Again thank you for the replies.
