Slow tach?
Today I hit the rev limiter in 2nd at what appeared to be around 5800ish on the tach. I thought the limiter was at 6200 or so - this was the first time that I have actually hit the limiter while looking at the tach.
I was wondering if the tach (stock) has a slightly slow response when the RPMs are increasing rapidly (such as during a 1st or 2nd gear pull). I typically shift more by sound/feel than by staring at the tach as it allows me to keep my eyes out the window but today it was like 7am on a Sunday so there were no other cars around to worry about so I was watching it and noticed the slow response.
I don't think there could be a failure such that the rev limiter would kick in early so its got to be the tach, right?
