Michael, Any chance of getting your hands on a back copy of an original press road-test? I know for a fact that with the UK publications (i.e. 'Autocar' and 'Motor') it was standard practise to state

The odometer is gear driven, and has no provision for calibration. You didn't say what size tires you are running on your car, but I am betting that at least some of the difference in the odometer r

Has anybody used a hand-held GPS to get an accurate idea of speed? What is the length of straight line necessary to have to get a good reading at constant speed? Mark 1972 TR6 (and a new J-type O/D I

While we're on the subject of Speedometer/Odometer -- my speedometer works, but my Odometer (and trip Odometer) do not. Has anyone had this problem? Is it possible the cable just isn't seated in prop

The speedometer's odometer function is a direct mechanical wormgear - pawl/ratchet and where tire size (radius) will affect the miles covered.. There is a 4-digit number on the speedo face (1120 on
