Anyone know how to calibrate your tach and speedo, mine are a lil screwy and need to be calibrated, i know toyota can do it, but if someone knows how to do it i'd love for u to tell me, rather then spend the money at toyota.....thx

here's a quick way to do it...

1) remove needles
2) turn on ignition(not the car), wait about 30 seconds.
3) hold the tip of the needle at 0, and line it up to where you put it on, try to make sure it's at 0, push needle on
4) repeat for the other needle
5) test out

I generally get it right about 95% of the time w/only 100-200 rpm and ~5mph variances.
