i need help with my c4!!

hey guys i have a leak in my trans and i believe it is coming from the speedo cable. i have looked for a new cable but its not the right part, im hoping you guys can help. its about 6 inches from the end of the trans and does connect to the speedo but what is that end called? i went to napa and they didnt know what the part was called. so now i got to figure out the proper name so i can buy it. Thanks and i hope you guys can help

 

It Goes Where That Red Tab Is, I Hope That Help Pinpoint It

 

Is it leaking through the cable or is it coming out around the cable end between the end and housing.. If its leaking out around the end there is an o ring that end that may need to be replace.

 

call these guys, they'll have that cable http://www.pioneerautoinc.com/autotran.htm

 

Ford Motorsports have them on the shelf.The cable comes as a complete unit from the trans to the speedo.The gear is additional so you can reuse your old one or know which one you need (the're color coded)

i keep looking but what is the part called i like a blind man trying to find the part. i have looked up all the speedometer parts i can find and none of them are it????

 

thanks for all the help everyone, ive decided to put in a freeze plug and lets the cops tell me how fast im going

 

Before you do that, and until you find another cable,or whatever it is you need, try this..
First, I am ***uming you have the end that goes into that hole..its part of the cable, not a seperate part. If not, find an old cable and lop it off.
theres a Y-shaped clamp that holds it on.
Anyway, take the end, and remove the gear. there will be a hole in the middle, thats where the fluid is coming out.
Glop some silicone in the hole. Let it dry and re-install the end into the trans and tighten the Y-clamp.
You are done leaking. Go buy a new speedo cable ***embly, and when you do install it, you should have no leaks.

 

Print this out and go down to a Ford dealer and get one of the speedometer gear 'holders' shown in the picture. While you're there you can get the correct gear and cable. The article tells you the info you need for selection. You will also need a retainer and bolt.
