Looking for a seal..

[John Reece]

Got a '95 Impreza 2.2 auto (see any tranny masters' thread) I got this
new transmission but its a little different...though its supposed to
work just fine.

Here is my problem: The new one has a speed sensor, the older one (the
original) has a cable. Now they look like it will switch over just
fine, except the newer one doesn't have a seal where the speedo shaft
goes into the transaxle. The old one does.

The seal seems to be a push in type, but we can't get the old one out,
and would probably destroy it anyway. I got one from the dealer, but
its incorrect... Anyone familar with what I'm talking about, and any
idea where to find one? Without it, I am totally screwed..


Thanks

How about replacing the instrument cluster package? I think your 95 was
the last year to use the cable-driven speedometer.

Check enough wrecking yards and look at ebay and you should be able to find
a used panel in the $25 range.
