Factory 69 Cuda Tach needle came off - easy reinstall?
Hi.
While sorting out an oil gauge issue, we
took the time to "'refinish" the dash surround.
- sanded the "chrome" areas
- replaced the woodgrain with new aftermarket
- sprayed new Duplicolor chrome paint
It looks much better than before.
Also painted the gauge needles neon orange, tach needle came off during this process, but I think I got it back in place.
Maybe not.
all is reinstalled, tach seems wired correctly, but no needle deflection during engine run.
When I reinstalled the needle it seems to press in place with no issue.
The mounting pin on the needle seemed to pass through a small gasket / o ring during insertion.
Have you ever done this?
Any ideas on what I may have missed?
Thank you
Craig
