speedo problem in 93 si
i baught my dream car since i was 12 about 5 months ago. im 18 now by the way. it was a white 93 si, with b18 non vtec swap and some suspension stuff, since then i did more suspension work, duck bill, mirror and headlights and stuff.
but in the past 2 weeks under hard acceleration my needle would be around 180KMH when i havnt even left first gear yet. and just cruising around town in 3rd gear at 50KMH the needle would occasionally bounce from 50 to 60 and 65, and i would wiggle the plugs in my engine bay a bit and it will be all good for a while.
then about 4 nights ago it was doing it again, so when me and my girlfriend were comming out of taco bell i wiggled the plugs again. i got in and turned the car on and immediatly while pulling out just letting off the clutch it was saying i was doing around 200 kmh and racking up some fake miles on my cluster. so i popped the hood and wiggled the plugs around a bit and my speedo just stopped working after that.
after driving around for a bit with my speedo not working my check engine light will come on, i assume its relative to the speedo. does anyone have any advice or speculations to what this could be?
