I got my odometer gear today from odometer gears ltd (odometergears.com). It installed per web instructions. The gear that broke in my unit was the one with 12 teeth and the brass insert. The new one is all plastic, and I had to remove the old brass insert, It kind of split off with 6" Klein diagonal cutters. I was somewhat fear full of breaking some thing but it worked out for me. The new gear pushes on .
Now the lubricating waxy stuff on the gears looks to me like it needs some kind of replenishment. Any Ideas? I was thinking of Leslies swimming pool o-ring greases (a DOW silicone/? product that reminds me of vacuum grease but a bit lighter .)
