INSPECTION
1. INSPECT SPEEDOMETER ON−VEHICLE:
Using a speedometer tester, inspect the speedometer for allow-
able indication error and check the operation of the odometer.
HINT:
Tire wear and tire over or under inflation will increase the indica-
tion error.
If error is excessive, replace the speedometer.
Standard indicationAllowable range
2018 − 24
4038 − 44
6058 − 66
8078 − 88
10098 − 11 0
