got it installed got it working LOVE IT works great but I have some issues.

the primary is SPEED is very very unreliable over 50mph (sometimes under 50mph too but not as long or as often)

but definitely over 50mph its ALL OVER the place sometimes as high as 82 (when I am doing 55 as low as 0 or 1 usually around 10-20mph over.

its only for "spurts" since the mileage is not off much.

what can I do about this? I head someone say something about this being "bounce" in the VSS reeds???

something about switching to a hall effect sensor for more reliable input. suggestions? how would I do this where would I get it? etc.. etc..

I have to "tune" my guino by speed since my odometer is NOT accurate but to tune by GPS I need a nice steady input. I got it close. within .5mph of true speed I think :-)
