'87 4kq "real" gear ratios. Ideas???



Haudi,

I can't find any real numbers in the Bentley for my 016 trans/diff.
While trying to correlate the car's speed to the tach, I've noticed the
closest numbers to being accurate (195-60-14 tires) are 0.8:1 for fifth,
and 4.11 for the final drive. What gives?

BTW, my odo's off by 5% (ie, the car thinks it's gone 5% farther than it
really has) in every state from NH to CA. I'd have thought it would
change with the time zones . . .

tia,
James
