#52615, "Gauge Needles"


          

If you don't take the needles all the way then you should lose the calibration should you....All I did was move them over the tab that stops it from going past zero and sanded them....I think its just in my mind but I think the speedo is off a bit.....Sorry if this sounds stupid I just need some confirmation that the calibration wouldnt mess up just from moving..Thanks in advance

Heh your first post made NO sense lol. Uh.. try using punctuation. Anyway, yeah NEVER TAKE YOUR NEEDLES OFF unless you want to spend a lot of time trying to recalibrate them.

not to contradict what u just said but, if u take notes on ur speed at certain rpms it's not that bad.. i calibrated mine from my rpms. i set my rpm needle after letting my car fully warm up and return to normal rpm. but if u just get the needle high enough to move it over that metal stopper u should be fine. as long as the needle never was completely off of the stem.

also if you have cruise control its not a problem. slowly speed up trying to turn it on over and over, as soon as it turns on, stick that needle on the 25. you can also check if cruise maxes out at 85 emoji

esi with 50k great shape for sale, afx udp, stock otherwise.
