Your 86 Trans Am should be electronic driven, in case that was your next question.

I read an earlier post by you, and I know you said you installed the clip, but the gear should fit so tight, that you really don't need the clip. The gear has to be tapped on the output shaft. If it slides easily, either the shaft or the gear isn't right. Check this out: Speedo gear swap
