Re: Reprogramming For Gear Ratio Change

Indeed based on the engine speed/output shaft speed ratio, the computer should think that the lock up clutch slips (either in 3rd or 4th gear) and then generate a code accordingly....(no problem with OD itself though), so matching the two could indeed require the change you suggest, but of course the speed reading of your speedometer and mileage of odometer would then start showing 10% more than the actual....where now it counts 3% less because of the switch from 31 to 30.
I would rather like to know if access to the computer code could allow for changing that in the computer instead...those who have built or procured the computer interface --I think of nicke66 - could give us a clue on that....
