5k RPM's at 65mph
I have a pair of 5KCSTQs. One has a correct speedo (checked by THP
radar, once by request, the other times they just snuck up on me!) and shows
80 m/h at 3,000 r/m -- as already noted. The second car will show 86 m/h when
following the first car at 80 m/h. It appears that speedo 2 is out of order
by about 8% or so.
There was a thread I found somewhere in the archives in which someone
found out that there is a resistor (capacitor?, anyway, some electronic gizmo)
that affects the speedo display. Changed it from a 55 ohm to a 51 ohm or
something like that to correct the reading. I know I copied the data, and I
know it's on my hard drive SOMEWHERE, so later tonight, or maybe sometime
tomorrow, I'll dig it up. If the original poster is still active, maybe you
could resend the data and provide any updated info.
Later.
