P. I did a bunch of runs on a calibrated road (the one with the miles marked for speedo check) until I was sure of the error. In my case I was 10 mph optomistic at 60 mph. That went a long way to explaining the single digit salutes I was experiencing at the time. Then I removed the speedo module and adjusted the pointer back by spinning it on the spindle. After a another road test I found the new error to be +3 at 60mph. It is right on the money up to about 30 mph then the minor error occurs. Steve '81 Country Home Myrtle |
