speedometer cable removal

[ranahan@charter.net (John Erickson)]

Yes, just pull it straight out, BUT, if it doesn't come 
out easily, wiggle it around a bit.  If you just yank on 
it, you could easily pull the gear off the end of the 
cable (its just held on with a circlip) and then have to 
fish the gear out of the tranny.  If that happens, let me 
know.  There is a "procedure" for getting the gear out of 
the tranny if its been lost in there.

|I'm trying to replace the speedometer cable in the '88 
|cabriolet.  The bently is pretty vague in the area of 
|removing the cable from the transmission.  I've got the 
|hold down bolt out, but can't get the cable out of the 
|transmission.  Is it just a matter of grabbing the cable 
|and pulling on it with some strength?  or is there 
|something else i have to do?  TIA
