Dodgy rev guage help,

[shayden69]

hmm so my rev guage has never been quite right, works ok.. till 5000 revs then fully doesnt want to go any further?

For instance if i rev it right out in second gear, then shove it into third it just stays at 5000 revs?

would be nice if it was accurate so i could get perfect gear shifts.

any one out there no why this could be? chuur

search bar dude use it it has been covered many a time.

There is a circuit board behind the gauges that has some dry solder joints on it - re solder them up (will fix sticky fuel and temp gauges)
For your tacho just get one from a VS and replace the tacho in your car - it will be x100 better. I had the same symptom, tacho went up but didnt want to come down.
