QUOTE(rhodyguy @ Oct 5 2007, 11:24 AM)  what was the solution that worked? too tight in one direction in the fore aft or a little rotation in the side to side? i basically ended up going under the car, and putting it in a gear. then getting up and setting the lever in the correct spot, and fine tuning it from there. |

oh lord, so tonight was that drive i was talking about. i ended up with a ticket.
20 over. good grief. but i explained to the officer that the speedo needle doesnt move....(which i demonstrated by revving the engine in neutral and park....(IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)) but it worked he bumped it to 10&under. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) my plan is to take a picture to the courtroom on the arraignment date of a worn speedometer gear, explaining that mine is very similar to it and that it does not send accurate readings at all. so basically i now need a worn out speedometer picture.. |

so you showed him your tack didn't work. too funny! beware, when you're in court and he realizes HIS error, he might get all worked up, be watching for you and nail you for the full measure next time. me? i'd pay the ticket and count my bessings.

its really not a problem, i dont live in yukon currently, and dont plan on it ever again.
theres a backstory with me and this cop however. about 2 years ago, theres was a party and like most good highschool parties, it got busted... well i made a feeble attempt to jump the fence and get my case back so it wasnt lost. and i didnt make it past the front yard before a flashlight shined on me and yelled "HEY WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING?" needless to say, i was apprehended and hauled off. they let me out the next morning and i have my older sister come get me, they set a court date etc. i do NOT tell my parents about this. the entire summer goes by, then about august sometime, a letter comes, and it tells my mom everything. i basically have to say "oh, i had just gotten there to pick someone up. they probably just wanted to make an example of me or something." things smooth out. a few days later, i hear word of an officer being fired. get this. it was my arresting officer. his offence? getting "Busy" with a clerk at a conoco, in uniform, on duty, CAUGHT ON CAMERA. basically, i tell my "story" at court, the county pros. drops everything. im free. except, the cop from last night, is the other cops cousin. and it was about the 6th time hes pulled me over. (always for seatbelt...) so im not really worried about pissing him off. i think hes at his limit with me. |

pretty much, in oklahoma (for the most part) i could run just about every redlight i come to, and the people around at the stop would just wave at me friendly and smile.
im not too worried about the other drivers out there, its mainly just me. |
