Speedo hookup leaking

How is this fixed? Is there a gasket? Mine is soaking wet.

JammerX19, do you mean where the speedo cable hoks to the transmission. As far as I know that side of the speedo cable is a screq on and it is hard for big hand people to get up there. Two things. One, there is a little rubber gasket that goes over cable. Got one at Auto Ricambi. Two, use a set of extended long nose pliers of some other specialized thin wrench to carefully tighten the cable on the trans.
Buon giro a tutti! - enjoy the ride!
