Default Speedo help?
I just installed my fuel tank after doing a paint job and I noticed that when I turn the ignition on the speedo needle will go in reverse for a second then settle on zero. I know it is he$$ to get old but I can't remember since last fall if this is normal or not. Maybe I pinched a wire or if this is normal let me know...thanks.
