I also have a 5-speed '89 9k, but haven't any experience with a bad speedo to help you out with. In case you haven't the Haynes manual, though, here's what it says: "Vehicles built after 1987 are fitted with an electronic transducer in place of the drive gear. This device measures the rotational speed of the transmission final drive, and converts the information into an electronic signal, which is then sent to the speedometer module in the instrument panel. The signal is also used as an input by the engine management system ECU (and where fitted, the cruise contril ECU, the trip computer, and the traction control system ECU)." The speedo transducer is on the differential housing, at the rear of the transmission case. Maybe this come loose and is a simple fix -- or not seeing it's an electrical problem... good luck. Rod.
