Topic: Trip Knob Removal

[bryanj]

A gauge restorer on the UK site says to use the thinnest dremel wheel you can get to cut along the knob then gently lever open to remove, refit using epoxy in the groove to fill the slot

I tried that Bryan.

The one half split as I was trying to lever it off and the second half wouldn’t budge, so I had to cut it! 

Now looking for potentiometer, or pot, knobs or a suitable glue tube top.

The problem is most of the above knobs are 6mm and the shaft on the speedo, at least mine, is 5mm.

That was on my practice gauge; the real ones are going to a gauge rebuilder!
