My_Names_Buck Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Hmmm.. I'm very confused, (angry) style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":angry2:" border="0" alt="angry.gif" /> I noticed this the other night while out driving. For some reason my rev counter is incorrect the needle is around 2500rpm to high. Even with the engine turned off and keys removed it still indicates 2500rpm Right through the rev range the needle is 2500 ahead of what it should be. It went all the way around to the 90 degree mark on the temperature gauge last night.Performance has not been affected and the engine still apears to be runnig the way it should be and still idles as before but the indication is totally wrong.Any help would be greatly appriechiated.Sam.
