I have a speedo!

#1 Post by 2F45T4U »

Been without one for about 5 months. Been using my rev counter to work out my speed. And as a result my driving has been very slow past speed cameras!

Now all fixed and 30mph in a Mite feels like 50 mph again :D :D :D

my speedo cable keeps falling off the back of the speedo head at about 60mph, anyone know how to make it stay? other than gaffer tape...

if it keeps falling off the bit that it fixes into on the speedo has probably rounded off or it isn't attached properly. One involves putting it on correctly one involves a new speedo.
