Lubricating Speedometer Cable
The speedometer cable should be lubricated
with MOPAR All-Weather Speedometer Cable
Lubricant every 10,000 miles. At same time, put
a few drops of MOPAR Speedometer Oil on
wick in speedometer head. Refer to Section
XV, Lubrication.
Fill ferrule on upper end of housing with
MOPAR Speedometer Cable Lubricant. Insert
cable in housing, starting at upper end. Turn
cable around carefully while feeding it into
housing. Repeat filling ferrule except for last
six inches of cable. Too much lubricant at this
point may cause lubricant to work into indicat-
ing head.
c. Installation of Speedometer Cable
If cable sticks when it is inserted into housing
and will not pass through it, interior of hous-
ing is damaged or kinked. Be sure to check
housing from one end to other. Straighten sharp
bends by relocating clamps or elbows. Replace
housing if it is badly kinked or broken. Position
cable and housing so that they lead into head
as straight as possible.

AMMETER
The ammeter shows only current flowing to or
from battery, as case may be, and does not
indicate entire generator output. The current
supplied for ignition, lights and accessories is
automatically deducted from generator output
reading. Because of this, the ammeter should
never be used as an accurate check for gen-
erator current output. Ammeter should not in-
dicate more than 10 ampere charge above 30
miles per hour, after first 30 minutes of con-
tinuous driving. If more than a 10 ampere
charge is indicated with a battery specific grav-
ity of 1.260 or higher, check voltage control
regulator.
SWITCHES

IGNITION-STARTER SWITCH (FIG. 33)
The following precautions must be followed
when installing accessories such as heaters,
radio,
spot-light, etc. Use accessory terminal
only on ignition-starter switch (Fig. 33) and
not the ammeter terminal post.
