I had a speedometer cable snap some time ago. When I finally got in the
charitable
mood to install a new one, it turns out I should have gone golfing
instead...
292 CI six, 3-speed manual, with an after-market floor shift bracket
partially blocking
access. When I removed the trans end of the cable housing, the
plastic/nylon gear decided to go for a swim, toppling back into the trans.
I can touch it with my finger, but not enough to move it. I spent ten
minutes fishing around with a piece of wire, to no avail, but I haven't
completely abandoned the idea, versus the alternative.
Has anyone ever had this happen, then manage to extract it without pulling
the trans?

Why not remove the four easily accessible bolts that hold the tail shaft on
and
then slide the tail shaft off?
