There is a difference of 76 tire rotations between 35 and 30 inch tires per mile which is a difference of 700 feet. When my tach goes a mile I really went 5980 feet. Or 1.13 miles.
So when I do 60 miles an hour with 30s I travel 60 mile in an hour and with 35s I would be traveling 67.8 miles. But the truck still thinks its 60.
So my speedo is off about 8-10 mph. Right?
yes. i bought a gallon of cleaner and soaked the carb in a bucket along with everything in the carb except plastic stuff. and then i rebuilt it with a kit from oreily's and bought a can of carb cleaner and a box of qtips. cleaned it all made sure i put everything together correctly and didn't leave anything out. stuck it on the truck and adjusted it. then put new base gaskets on.
i haven't done vacuum gauge yet i think my dad has one i can borrow, which ones do i check?
