Speedo Not Reading Right

iNEED TO KNOW WHAT THINGS TO CHECK WHEN YOUR SPEED GAUGE IS NOT READING ACCURATELY. I HEARD YOU CAN CHECK THE CABLE THAT GOES INTO THE TRANNY BUT I DONT KNOW WHAT TO LOOK FOR. SHOULD IT BE LOOSE OR CUT OR WHAT. WOULD IT EVEN THROW THE SPEED GAUGE OFF?

what is your speedo doing? is it not working at all? is it reading slow? fast?

Its reading slow. Like when I am going 65, it is saying that I am going 55. What should I do other than having it calibrated. I want to check the car out first.

Did you by chance get a larger diameter tires?

Did you by chance get a larger diameter tires?

thats exactly what I was getting to.

I recently did a tranny swap?

I was told by a friend that if your speedo gauge cable was loose at the tranny, that your gauge would not read properly. If that is true would'nt the tranny leak fluid?

what year is it? It may not even have a speedometer cable. And if it does and it is loose, it wouldn't just read slow, it would probly work or not work, or just be jumpy.

Its A 96 Dx

If I Got A Reckless Ticket And Need To Throw The Speedo Off, What Could I Do? Got A Friend With The Same Car And Got A Reckless The Other Day And Wants Throw It Of When It Get Calibrated?
