How does it match up with your Tech2 when the motor is running?

Gauge shows higher

I previously took apart the cluster to put some blue tint over the odo display. I reset all needles to the 1st lower notch--by sweeping needle all the way to the right til it hit the internal stop, then sweeping it to the left, to the 1st notch. I just noticed the speedo needle isn't resting on it either.

Good news--Changed my tire size. Stock was 265 70 16, swapped to 265 70 17 because nnbs brake swap.
Hopefully it stuck.

you might actually feel that change in the way it shifts.

That’s why I don’t like pulling the needles off. There’s some YT videos on how to get them correct. The companies that sell gauge faces only tell you how to install them back like they were before you pulled it apart by taking a picture before pulling them but not how to calibrate them if they get installed wrong. It’s a PIA.

I didn't want to pull it apart but I installed that blue tint @iamdub had given me to cover up that bright ass odo display. As long as the other gauges are correct--hopefully--idc.
