RE: [doc] Speedograph Richfield was Smiths Industries



Title: RE: [doc] Speedograph Richfield was Smiths Industries

Dear All,


      PSO is doing fine right now, and not too many problems to speak of. However, I do have a little problem with the speedo. The needle bounces around like crazy, most of all near the bottom of the speed range. Is this bouncing needle thing a Delorean norm, or do I need to give attention to this one. It doesn't really registar aspeed before I get to 25MPH or  so. Any ideas?

Michael, List,

I have had another telephone conversation with "Speedograph's"  Dave Musson.
They are only in Nottingham, about 20 miles from my house in Derby (UK)  He
is fully knowledgable about the DeLorean having worked on the original
project.

They are starting to re-make angle drives!  I will take delivery of a "test
one" soon. Price will soon be decided.

He mentioned something which I had not thought about, Thereason they use
rather flimsy plastic gears in the angle drives is so they can act as a kind
of "fuse" in-case of cable / lambarda or speedo problems. He says using much
stronger metal gears could cause other problems.

Regards the 85 / 140 MPH Speedo's Dave is prepared to re-make the
"Euro-spec" 140 mph Speedo's on an "Exchange basis" , but he could do with a
few old 85 MPH units to start with....any volunteers? Contact me.  I can
lend him  one of  my original 140 MPH one's.

Any one wishing to view a proper original 140 MPH speedo can see mine on our
website www.delorean.co.uk .

They bought all the stuff from CP trim when it went bust!  All gone now!!
