well this morning my speedo jumped way up to 115mph while i was driving but judging by the rpm's the motor was spinning i'd say i was going aroung the normal 55-60.......it was cold so i'm thinking it might be the cable sticking or something like that.......just wanted to know if anyone has an idea of if i'm right or if it's something else

Yeah, it could have been the cable winding up like a spring, then releasing. In that case the indicated speed would have dropped first then spiked.

mine is doing the same exact thing right now :lol: i took out the cluster and the back of the speedo where the cable goes in was all gunked up. I cleaned it out and put a very little pb blaster on it. it was fine for a week but its doing it again now.

Ive noticed if i push down on the speedo cable when it starts it will stop ( mine also makes a god awful sound while its pegging 120 :lol:
