Speedo's and tach's have almost identical mechanisms <br>to drive the needles. It has been my experience that 5 or 6 decades can <br>cause the light oil used to lube the bearing between the tach's drive <br>and driven plates turns to thick sludge which adds additional rotational <br>effort to the driven plate thus causing high readings.<br><br>Edward Hamer<br>Petaluma CA<br><br>** <a ymailto="mailto:triumphs@autox.team.net" href="mailto:triumphs@autox.team.net">triumphs@autox.team.net</a> **<br><br>Donate: <a href="http://www.team.net/donate.html" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/donate.html</a><br>Archive: <a href="http://www.team.net/archive" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/archive</a><br>Forums: <a href="http://www.team.net/forums" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/forums</a><br>Unsubscribe/Manage: <a href="http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/triumphs/yellowtr3@yahoo.com" target="_blank">http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/triumphs/yellowtr3@yahoo.com</a><br><br><br></div> </div> </div> </div></div></body></html>
