Tach Gauge on 504

The tachometer gauge on my 504 works, sometimes. After running for a while it jams and the cable slips. I can pull the cable out and get the gauge loosened up by working it around a bit with something like a nail, but it'll jam again soon after the cable is put back in.

Am I likely to have trouble getting it back together if I open it up to clean/lubricate? I have bad memories of taking clocks apart when I was a kid...

I removed and opened the tach on my 504. Not much to it ,really. I carefully pried it open, lubricated it with some light oil, put it back together and it worked normally again.

Excellent, I tried the same thing and it worked but the glass was broken, I need a 3 inch round glass to put it back together and I don't know where to find one.

If you don't want to relive those memories, leave it to the professionals.

I've heard that bates corp repairs tachs.
