My speedomer needle is stuck on 70: what can I do?
My speedometer needle got stuck on 70 MPH. It won't free up until I hit a bump and fall below 70. It will no go beyond 70 MPH for it stops there and seems to get stuck and won't move until I hit a bump. I tried accelerating quickly past 70 to "force" the needle past that point but it stops there at 70.
I guess I'll take the instrument cluster out and work the needle by hand. Long time ago I install my gauge rings so I am familiar with how to get in there.
My question is has anybody experienced this and what needs to be done to fix it?

As you said, you've opened up the cluster to install guage rings... Well, i can almost guarantee the rings are the problem. Mine did the same thing, got stuck at 80mph and 3k RPMs.
Just readjust them (the rings) and maybe use some epoxy to make sure they dont move again.
