    So I had an oil leak from the Tach gear housing. The Tach was working little sluggish too. I got the new seals and cable and opened, cleaned it out and rebuilt it with new seals and new cable but now the needle does not move (it moved when I tried it with the power screwdriver), I have not run the engine for fear of making something worse - where have I gone wrong?

    Is the cable seated in properly? Is it in at both ends? I've put one back together on my 73 Suzki and didn't get them seated properly. It looked like it was put together right but it wasn't. Take it apart and check it.
