On 1974 and 1975 Corvettes with 4-speed transmission, an inoperative speedometer due to a stripped driven gear may be the result of relatively high internal friction in the speedometer adapter.
A new low friction adapter and key will be phased into production in January, 1975 and will be available for service under the numbers listed below:
1565211 ---- Adapter
6476870 ---- Key
For service, vehicles exhibiting this problem may be corrected by the following method:
- Remove driven gear and replace with new gear of same part number and color.
- Remove and discard production adapter and key and install new adapter and key.
