:? Ive got a 325 sprot 1 and the rev ometer has never worked properly since i brought the car.
It works on the odd occasion but mostley the needel is just stuck in one position.
It has been to sevral garages for other work and they have all said it might be differnt things.
just wondered if anyone else had come accross this and what they did to sort it.
is it a diy job?
All other electrics work fine.
cheers peeps
