erratic speedometer..
I've recently acquired my first FD. The previous owner had it for 10y, provided what seems like every receipt, it's straight as an arrow & seems mechanically solid etc. The speedometer bounces around and/or falls to 0 often though. (won't be long till I get a ticket!) Are there any known speedometer issues and/or info anybody can point me to? Also, I'm guessing the speedo's electronically driven? For the record, I've also got a 4.3, which expect will cause it to read a few % high, (would be great to correct this if possible, but not mandatory), though not erratic behavior. As always, thanks in advance! (I did search, though only ran into FC stuff)

This took about 15 seconds to find using the search tool in the top right part of the forum page.
Maybe you were looking in the wrong place?

Yep, It's a pretty common issue. My tach also bounces around sometimes. I just kinda pace the cars around me when the speedo acts up.
Also, if you go to the '3rd gen specific' area of the forum, There is a drop-down "search this forum" bar at the top-right, in the grey border. Search there and you'll only get results pertaining to an FD3S.
