[DML] Re: Speedo stops working (Tach xRefs)

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In a pinch, a good rule of thumb (5 speed) is: 2,250 RPM (halfway
between the gauge marks) yields *APPROXIMATELY* 25 MPH in 2nd, 35 MPH
in 3rd, 45 MPH in 4th, and 55 MPH in 5th (just use the gear number to
keep a speed that the cops won't bother you at).

Check out the document "TACHMPH.WPD" in the Files section (Yahoo
interface). This is the xRef chart I am still running. Fits perfectly
over the speedometer (tape it to the cluster lens and you'll be able
to read it at night through back illumination). I designed it for
easiest use at a glance -- is rotated 90 degrees from the common
chart, and only includes speeds/gears I am likely to use.

Note: this is a Word Perfect document. When I open it with MSWord,
carefully chosen size and fonts are lost. One of these days I may
translate it, but personally think the better solution would be for
everyone else to start using WP.
