The speedo on my coupe would only show about 20 mph even tho I was going about 50,then it would stay at 0 & once in a while jump up & down.Turned out the cable casing had a kink in it & the driven shaft in the"turtle" had the square hole worn out.I think the kink in the hsg put a strain on the cable & wore out the shaft for the cable end.
