Default Speed sensor, 6 speed

I'm in need of a speed sensor for a 6 speed transmission. Let me know if you've got one. Thanks.

*Edit - The car has a 3.90 final drive

The speed sensor matches your diff, not the trans, so the 6 speed part is not relevant. Your final drive ratio is.

I could use a gear for a 3.63.

Thanks for the info, I assumed the 6 speed would be different. It's a 3.90 gear, but if someone had a 3.63 for sale that would be fine too. Really need to get this fixed, my gas mileage has been horrible since it broke.

I have a couple of the electronic speed sensors laying around, one with a yellow gear and another with a blue gear. I'd be willing to swap one of them with someone that has the one that should come with cars running a 4.30 rear (purple I believe).

What color gear for the 3.63? I have a few lying around but can't figure this out. I know we have to play Mr. Potato Head with the sensor and the housing to make it work. There is a thread on this forum, with part numbers, but I can't find it. I'm about to put my extra 6-speed/3.63 in my daily for the 10mpg increase in economy and I want the speedo to read right.
