odometer reading low
 
I noticed today that my odometer is reading low. I can drive roughly 10 miles before my odometer reads a mile. My speedo is fine, what could be the culprit and what should I check first? oh yeah, My car is an 84 3.2.

Speedo works OK? Possibly busted plastic gears inside, but on the other hand... great for resale!

speedo works fine, well it reads a little off compared to gps but nothing substantial.

I just noticed this as well on my 85 Targa.


My speedometer needle "sticks" when pulling away from stopped. As I get to 20 or 30 mph, the needle jumps up to the true speed, at least the local radar speed signs tell me it's relatively accurate.

After this started happening, I noticed a tap on the glass would free the needle sooner. It was during one of these taps that... I... hit... the tripmeter reset. So I am guessing I have two issues and need to send it away.

I've seen an outfit in LA mentioned a lot, Hollywood something? They still the place to go to fix and adjust?

And will I damage anything if I drive it without a speedo in it?

Thanks in advance

North Hollywood Speedometer. Just got my speedometer back from them. The odometer quit working and I had them adjust and calibrate the speedometer as well. Works perfect now and they turned it around very quickly.
