speedometer

I just bought a speedometer for my '62 GMC it came with a little tube of grease. How much do I put, the whole tube or just grease the cable?


I greased the cable but I'm thinking maybe I should have put more.
Any input will help Thanks

Re: speedometer

Just put a lite coating on the cable end before inserting it into the speedo.

Re: speedometer

It "should" work its way down to the trans. One i saw had a spiral to it to help lube the cable.
