 The speedometer quit registering properly (sticky, showing 25mph when at standstill) and the oil pressure gauge pegged to the right. it has been doing this sporadically ever since (still to this day) with both the speedometer and oil gauge. you never know how fast (or slow) you are going and you fear the engine is about to blow because cannot know what the actual oil pressure reading is. as of today the actual mileage is only 57661. *tr
