84 regal speedometer not working

[84regal17]

ok so i took my speedometer apart and unpluged the speed cable and drove it and it was not spinning And i also checked the transmission side and it was put in right so my question is whats the easiest way to pull the cable out

it's a longshot, but check your gear in the transmission also....they are made of plastic, and if the needle is jumping, one of the teth may be broken off...

so i got a speed cable from a box chevy with anolog guages will it fit

Maybe not. The older ones had a different head where it goes onto the speedo. The transmission end is the same, though. Cables are cheap- check Rock Auto.

will the cable inside itself fit

do you have the digital gauges? if you do, an analog cable might not work. I'm not sure, but I think the digital cluster uses an electrical sensor on the trans, but I may be wrong....
