Stewart Model 100 problem

My idiot email refuses to send a message to Russ, so I'll ask here.

I have my speedometer installed, but I haven't connected the cable to the swivel because of a malfunction. The swivel turns CCW, which I believe is correct. But it turns only when the wheel rotates backwards!

Have I installed the gears and swivel incorrectly?

Do I have the wrong swivel?

Since you have a non original '15, is that why you wish to use a 100?

Something is wrong with your internal gears. Turning your wheel in either direction should make the swivel output shaft turn. Give me a call since your email isn't working. Russ Furstnow

I wish to use a 100 because I got it at a reasonable price, has an odometer, and is an aftermarket accessory that was sold for 1915-1918 Fords. I don't see that the impurity of my vehicle should preclude the use of a period accessory.

Great. I found two phone numbers and both got a "cannot be completed as dialed" message. Maybe you can call me.
