Anyone using Autometer Mechanical Speedo?
Does yours make a clicking sound? I bought one off ebay. When you are driving you can watch the needle bounce a tad and it clicks. It actually gets kind of annoying.
Im just curious if that is common for them or if I need to give autometer a call about maybe getting a replacement.

Could be that the cable is binding or it's not seated properly in the speedo. You could also try pouring some oil down the cable casing.

I'll check the cable tonight. Might squirt some white lithium grease inside of it. Thanks
