What have you done today with your Austin Seven
I have recently driven a car with the gauge on zero when running between 30 and 40 mph.

Revving produced a flicker off the stop, from cold it was up to (say - I can't really remember) 10, falling to zero after warming up.

I advised the owner to try swapping gauges, but could it possibly be a sheared key and slipping gear?

I think I would expect more inconsistency if that was the case, but I don't like driving with zero or near zero showing.

Your experiences, please.....
