speedo doesn't like it when it's cold...
Hi all,
Frau Frankenbenz has been performing well this year (notice the lack of posts from me!). Now that it's gawdawful cold in St. Louis (mornings are routinely around 10-15 deg F) I have noticed that my speedometer (and odometer) aren't working in the morning, but in the afternoon, when it's warmer, they both appear to be working fine. Has anyone experienced this? How was it remedied? Is it possible that the cold is shrinking the gear contact points enough so as to not mesh? Thanks in advance for your help!
