Here is a good Tech Tip by Jeff Erickson ...
< TECH TIP >

I followed his Tech Tip to silence my squeeky speedometer. I removed the brass cup plug that he described and lubed the wick with 20w 3-in-1 oil. Plus I lubed other parts as he described.

The brass cup-plug on my speedometer was easy to remove. The plug is not solid; it is cup shaped. I inserted a screwdriver into the port, pressed against the side of the cup and pulled/twisted it out. I could not easily remove the felt.
