Is my rev counter knackered?

My rev counter all of a sudden reads really high. I think it happened after what seemed like the engine momentarily died which is a little worrying it's self. When the ignition is turned on but engine not fired it reads about 4K rpm. The more things I turn on the lower it reads. Full beam on and it ...

I couldn't find any. It's reckoned that if that pin is worn then a new shift assembly is required. There maybe a problem in removing and replacing the pin while it's in the car.

Vague gear changes and stuck in gear fix

After adjusting my shifter linkages a couple of times and still having problems when changing between 2nd and 3rd I thought I'd do some remedial work.

Change oil inlet manifold

I have an interest in the Gordon keeble site where they have chassis numbers and either pictures or blanks. This helps build a picture of what's still around. Admittedly there's on,ly 100 gk's but it's great lure to the site.
