Im in the process of repairing all gauges on my boat and I replaced the tubing from the speedo. I can blow in it and the needle moves. I found where the tubing fits into the 90 degree on the motor but where is the water intake to build up the pressure? Im wanting to clean it out to see if that will get it working but I have no idea where it goes in or how to clean it? Any suggestions or advice would be great!

On the lower part in the front of the g/c. Use a small drill bit and do it by hand.

Can you send pic to ad5vj@ad5vj.com

Of where the tube plugs in that came out. The one you had to plug back into the "L".

Mine came out also from somewhere but the plastic "L" came out with the tube still attached to the "L".

It is just laying in the engine compartment with rhe tube from the speedometer gauge connected to it.

I can't figure out where the little plastic "L" plugs into.

Thanks Bob
