Where does your tach idle when you turn your car on, or where should it idle rather, and how can I accurately readjust the speedometer??? Thus far I've gone from 40 mph over to 10 mph over, so I'm still working on it. Thanks guys and gals.

This is what I did... but not a very safe way of doing it...

hey man, thanks a lot. That will be a little difficult though and I'm not yet too familiar with engine types and numbers, but I have a '94 ST so I'm not sure if it's the same but your redline speeds sound about the same as mine, so I'll have to try it. Thanks a lot man.
