Speaking of throwing speedometers off... I borrowed one of Lisa's dads fuel trucks to take away the debris from the roofing... I noticed immediately the speedo was completely off... and since I'd be passing 3 red light/speed cameras, I tried to guess an approximate ratio of how far off it was. Judging by the reading and other traffic... I guessed at it being the reading plus two thirds of the reading to be about accurate. She came with me to return it... and I was complaining about the speedo being off when she said "just multiply by 1.6"... my mind raced quickly how she came up with 1.6... spur ratios... tire size differences... then she added "you DID realize the speedo's in MPH, right?"

Um. Yes. Of course.


As a mechanic those older vehicles always throw me for a loop, have to rethink everything, right back to the basics, carbs and all.
