      I could try the voltage regulator off my original cluster do you think

            this didnt work it still did the same , ive been told if it says un4 on the front where the steering clips go in it will be different to the vdo type one , this un4 one ive got still says vdo on the back ive seen now and the guy i bought it off says its 100% from a v6 , but its from a 2,8 not a 2,6 , cant see it making much difference

            yesterday i stripped the old original vdo unit down and found the cog had broken that clicks the mileage around but its a 20 tooth green cog which is a strange one
