Hi, I am trying to replace my oil guage in my 73, I need to remove the clock
stem or knob, not sure which. Can anyone tell me how to remove the clock
knob before I break something. Thanks, Keith

Tape the knob, needle nose pliers on the stem and pliers on the knob,
turn left. Get a good grip first time out so you don't slip and it
should come loose.

Dad is usually right, but in some of these '70s GM cars, they used a screw
down the center of the knob.

So check that to see if there is a screw slot in the center of the knob. If
so, then grip the knob like Dad said and use a small jeweler's screwdriver
on the knob.
