And I thought it was supposed to be dry in the East today. It rained here too - no surprise - filling up the Lakes for the tourists. _________________ Andy C L300 Super Exceed - over 100 smiles per gallon! |

Puzzled by size of bolt holding drive adaptor in place, smaller than 10mm but larger than 8mm(9mm?)
Smaller than 3/8 AF but larger than1/4 AF, will have to dig out my Whitworth/BSF sockets and spanners.
If not a universal socket if it will fit or the ubiquitous adjustable spanner. _________________ Ian.

Job done, but have now got a brand new speedo drive connector as the old one would not budge.
Had to recut the thread on the old one and fit the new converter to it.
Anyway; speedo is now working and Mitsi is back on the road!! _________________ Ian.

L400 "speedo" drive is easy to fit :D
Mine packed up last year, started to show symptoms on the way to the Welsh meet.
Managed to get home before it stopped working completely - phew.

The L300 is a mechanical speed converter, actually all it is is a small gearbox that fits between the end of the speedometer cable and the gearbox take off.
I believe the L400 is electronic. _________________ Ian.

Don't suppose you have the link or item description for the drive off ebay? I've had a quick search but Can't find it, need to convert my speedo so my wife doesn't get done for speeding.
