I fixed my erratic speedometer! Can you guess what it was? Corroded connector! A little baking soda, water, and a wire brush, and voila - I now know my vehicle speed. It's neat how the speed sensor dips into the transmission and into the transmission fluid. There's like a little wheel like a watermill. I wonder how it works, I bet it's interesting. I'd like a watermill and a little cabin by a river.
Took another WOT wide-open throttle trip. Beautiful street lamps and a night-time fog. Man it's fun going wide open throttle. I always thought that was bad for the engine. Maybe it is. But lol, wide open throttle on this little old Honda is the slowest thing ever, hah. I have to go wide open throttle while the mini-van next to me casually and without strain overtakes me. Fun though, these manuals are growing on me. Still prefer driving automatic though, but if someone took this manual away from me, I'd miss it.
