John, thanks.  I had previously heard of using a graphite lubricant.  Any thoughts on that

Be sure to unscrew the serrated nut on speedo head next to where cable attaches and drip 10w oil in . It broke for a reason usually the grease gets hard right there . A toothpick pushed through old grease might be needed to get oil in . That input thing should spin freely . 

If unlucky your odometer might have jammed , means out It comes.     But usually the lubrication at inlet bushing dries up .more oil frees it . 

Good luck !

Folks, my speedo cable stopped working this summer, I had lubricated it 10 years ago.  This summer I decided to get a new reproduction cable from Van's auto at Carlisle.  Any tips for removing and installing the cable housing assembly?  I have it unscrewed at the back of the speedo, and am aware of where it enters the tranny.
