Default Speedometer Gear Identification

Hello All!

I have an unusual problem. I have a 1985 Carrera. The odometer stopped working, which is no surprise. I took the speedo apart and found half a gear with the consistency of a gummy bear. This is the fourth speedo/odometer that I've repaired. It's usually very straightforward. I normally have two solid pieces, or a single gear with three teeth missing to deal with. I can not count the teeth on this unit and I'm afraid to touch the remainder of the gear. Can any of you identify the proper gear and tooth count to order? When I do a search on Pelican Parts I get every possible gear available. I don't know....

I suppose that I might be successful at that. I was just hoping that someone knew off the top of their head. I'll get my magnifying glass and pointer out. Thanks....and SEXY 993 you have there mate!

Just in case anyone asks the same question that I did: This is the Odometer Gears OD 20x30 gear.

FWIW - www.odometergears.com is the bomb! Great product. Great instructions. Many applications.
