Johnny, a series of cascading failures. First thing to go is the
speedometer cable. It does not break, but the outer cable covering melts
from header heat, and seizes the inner cable from movement. The governor
tries to rotate the seized cable, it won't move, but the transmission moves
the governor gear. The plastic gear, as designed, then strips out, leaving
the rest of the gearset intact. That's the way I see it from here. I have
repaired several coaches that failed in that way, including mine.
