German odometer replacement sticker?
I am working on the restoration of a 1977 Carrera 3.0 that was originally delivered to an owner in Germany. While removing the carpet in the area of the drivers side kick panel, I found the sticker shown in the picture below. I'm hoping someone in Germany has seen one of these before and can confirm to me what I think it probably is.
It measures approximately 36mm by 46mm and is made from the same material they use for small tickets (like they use in raffles.) There is a company name in the middle, "Berner," and a word across the bottom that might be: Kompres_onsdrucks__eiber. I can't make out the three missing spaces shown above. Below that appers to be the word Motometer. Written by hand along the right side is 20038 km. There are a few other letters and numbers that make no sense. I figure this is either a sticker showing that the odometer was replaced at a certain mileage or a sticker showing a service was performed at a certain mileage. Anybody seen one of these, or speaks enough German to translate the word above? Thanks, JR

I have seen those before. It's an engine dyno compression printout.

 This is for the moto meter version, yours happens to be a Berner "Kompressionsdruckschreiber" But it's the same thing

No dyno.
German compression testers use a little pen to scribe the readout on a piece of paper for each cylinder. Wayne doesn't sell these, but www.samstagsales.com handles the Moto Meter line. You use it the same way as you use a regular compression tester but it records the readings. And it's about 20X more expensive.

John,
Thanks for the explanation. Now the few numbers that I can see on the sticker make some sense. A record of a compression test beats the heck out of an odometer replacement sticker. I figured this question would twist in the wind for quite a while. It amazes me how much collective wisdom resides on this board. Many thanks, JR |
