Speedo cable nut tip
« Reply #1 on: July 02, 2012, 03:05:56 PM »
Having dramas getting the speedo cable threaded through the triple clamps and you finally get it through and you go to hook it up to the speedo spigot and you realise the threaded collar is sitting way down in the lower loop of the cable? Here's a quick fix -



Just a tiny zip tie around the crimped fitting keeps the nut exactly where it's needed, at the cable's end.
