Hi Tommy,

welcome to the forum.

 

You may be lucky. Lift the carpet on the offside of the tunnel just below the handbrake.

You may find that there is a rubber bung or panel that can be removed to gain access tot he end of the cable.

Hi Tommy,

 

Welcome!

 

As Roger says, a previous owner may have installed a bung or hatch in the gearbox cover for access. If not, you will need to remove the gearbox cover to change the speedo cable. It's not a difficult job, just rather time consuming because of the number of bolts holding the cover.

Roger - Tommy must have an odd TR6 handbrake position! You are TR4 infatuated at the moment - nothing wrong with that I hasten to add as a fellow 4er!

 

Tommy - Roger means the part of the tunnel under the carpet by your clutch leg shin

 

Sorry to be pedantic but I didn't want Tommy cutting a hatch in his transmission tunnel alongside the handbrake between his seats!

 

Cheers

I think we are talking about the same position but from a different descriptive angle - I was a little worried that Tommy might take up the carpet around the handbrake and start searching in that location - I thought you were confusing a TR4 handbrake position and as you say, the speedo outlet is just behind that, but under the gearbox tunnel.

 

I think I've totally confused matters, so I'll go back in my burrow, but hopefully Tommy knows where to go - whats the betting there isn't a helpful hatch in the gearbox tunnel?

 

Cheers

Rich
