I have had the scan gauge II for several years. Also thru several sets of tires. When I have gone thru radars and also had a local officer check me by radar @ 40 mph on the dash speedo. I would actually be going 37mph. The scan gauge would be reading 43 mph when the radar reading was 40 mph.
The scan gauge is calibrated to the rev/per/mile for the tire size.
Now all of the sudden the factory speedo and the scan gauge read together. The scan gauge is still calibrated correctly. It cant be because of tire wear. that would effect both speedos'.
I havent been able to get it radar checked yet. I just find it odd, that. All these years I knew if I drove with the scan gauge reading 3 mph higher than posted. I was on the money.
Most of us have found that our gen1 tracs have a 2 to 3 mph error with the oem speedo. So I have always used the scan gauge when Im on the highway. Now Im confused, that both speedo's read the same @ all speeds.
Any Idea's? I dont have a GPS, to compare with. It may be a gremlin. Just not battery related...LOL:banghead:
