Thanks for your advice everyone. I could not tackle a gearbox - I'm OK with general servicing, changing the water pump and radiator etc but I'm not competent! The engine now seems to have flushed clear and doesn't seem to recontaminate on stationary running. I had lost a little TQF on changing...

My 74 2200 looked quite good from a few feet but I found it needed quite a lot of work - sills, D posts etc. some of this I should have spotted when I bought it of course but I did check the boot, take out the back seats, lift carpets etc. Trouble is the outer sills had been replaced some time...
My speedo failed so I thought I would replace the cable but it turned out to be fine - the angle drive on the (auto) geabox had failed. These are expensive for such a small item but Clive Annable had a second hand item. I have often found the speedo noisy when working properly so I took out the...

Bought a 2200SC auto last year and joined the club. Not very skilled but manage to service it, replace the radiator etc but how do I replace the speedo cable? - its not covered in Haynes.
