> I might get a GPS, but really need to get this fixed first - it's off by over 20mph on the highway. My wife led me at different speeds so I know generally where my normal speeds are, but anything over 55 pegs the needle. Imagine that, a Vanagon running out of speedo :) > > Part of my question, I guess, was if something this off can be calibrated, or should just be replaced? > > john I would assume if you are pegging the needle above 55 MPH, it needs to be repaired or replaced, not calibrated. I would pull it and bring it into a local speedometer shop for an estimate - if it's too much to repair and calibrate, then replace it. Don in Phoenix, AZ |
