a few weeks ago i noticed that when slowing my speedometer would stop and then drop to the correct speed. this stopped on its own and i gave it no more thought. this past weekend i took a road trip to upstate new york and it started again, this time on acceleration and deceleration. it got so bad that i would slow down and be doing 55-60 ish and the neddle would be stuck on 70-75 ish. this is a guage cluster from a newer Z28, is it time to get another one, or is there anything I can do? the guage cluster had 32,000 miles on the clock when i got it, and has been working fine for about 2 years now.

Mine did that breifly before my alternator died. But wht you're describing seems to be taking place over a longer period of time and you have bigger fluctuations than my speedo.K&N CAI, Magnaflow High Flow Cat, Flowmaster American Thunder 2.5\" Cat-back exhaust w/ 40 series Muffler (single piped exit), Pacesetter Midlength Headers, TB Bypass.<br /><br />Vid of my 3.4 - <a href=\"http://media.putfile.com/Headers49\" target=\"_blank\">http://media.putfile.com/Headers49</a> -
Mine will randomly drop down to the bottom, and then go right back up all in a matter of a second.
It doesn't do it too often, but it's still kinda weird / annoying.97 Camaro<br />94 Blazer<br />~Comment

mine is always slow by about 4 or 5, but only for 1 sec or 2. Speed up and hit cruise, you'll see the needle drop and stay at a lower speed.Comment

Went ahead and moved my starter wire from the back, to the front again since it had no effect on my drain on the battery. Also made me nervous driving...3 weeks ago -
Building the Tom Henry RS
Part 4: Suspension Mods, Tires, Wheels, Headers and other Cool Stuff.
By: Hib Halverson
At the end of Part Three, we changed the valvetrain of the 3.8-liter V6 in the Tom Henry RS. We installed new, Yella Terra "Ultralite" 1.8:1, aluminum roller rocker arms, Katech valve springs and Katech titanium retainers on our 3800 Series II V6.
Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...02-07-2020, 10:30 PM
