5-speed tranny/odometer repair

[bokwus]

How common is the five speed transmission and assume that the fifth gear is an overdrive? How easy is it to replace or repair my odometer?

Thanks - John

hi John,

I'm no expert, but from what I've seen, the 5 sp manual transmissions are fairly common. Here's two good links for more research:

Usually the 5th gear is an overrdrive, the % depends on the year it was produced.

As far as the odometer, if it a cable or drive gear issue its easy. I've never messed with the odometer innards.

Hope that helps.

Dirk
