Default Airguide speedometers

Hi All,

The restoration of my 1960 Owens 16 foot proceeds apace. I have
installed new frames and stringers, a new floor and and have just
applied two coats of primer/undercoat to the upperworks. I am now
looking for authentic instruments, although I do have the original
Airguide speedometer.

Does anyone have any knowledge or experience of these instruments. If
I blow into the air inlet on the back I can just about get it to
register 5mph, but I think the mechanism may be sticking. Is it
possible to open up the seedometer to service the parts inside. Any
information would be gratefully received.

Graham
