My dials are fooked and I am gonna buy some off ebay that come with white dials in them!

How hard will it be to move the mileage forward to match the correct mileage?

IT is a series 2!

Thanks

 

put a speedo cable on it, and the other end of the cable put a drill on it and turn it on, watch the miles click up!.

 

Does that really work?

 

cause it does how do think your mileage clicks up?, i had 135mph out of my twin speed drill the other day.

saves making marks on the digits and people thinking its clocked!

 

LOL I will have to find a shitty speedo cable somewhere to do this with!

then I can make a post "Who has the quickest drill"

 

it does work mate, the 'professionals do it this way' if u know what i mean. lol

 

I get ya

 

the drill will work but it could take a while if you have to add a few miles!!

could try a dremel as i think they spin at a fair rate of knots

 

most people want to decrease mileage, so why would the professionals do it thattt way ?

unless they have a drill that has reverse gears

 

leave it as is and document the change in your history

 

am i right in saying they go past 99999 and start again???

When i got my car it had done 154'000 miles, but could have passed off for 54'000 that the clock was displaying

 

nice one, and yeah your probably right about the clocking...

they will just send it round the clock, so it goes past 00000 and then they set it to whatever they desire

 

It's a simple clock to adjust on an S2, I reset mine to 00000 when I fitted a new engine. All you have to do is dismantle the clock a bit and it's simple to do with a small screwdriver.

 

whats fooked about your dials dude?

 

If the escort speedo is the same type as the sierra one its dead easy to do. When I changed the speedo in mine for a 170mph cossie I wanted to keep the mileage the same. I tried using the drill but it takes ages so I carefully levered open the actual counter barrel and moved the counters round to what I wanted. I didn't seem to harm it.

 

If the odometer and speedo head are still ok on yours, just swap them into yer new ones...
