[Shotimes] weird noise/weird tach/weird speedo

[Jason Hartberger]

I know about the TQ locking up (I say I have a 6 speed tranny cos it 
locks up in 3rd and 4th lol) but I'm not talking about that... 
Fortunately I have a year-long warranty from Transmission Masters in VA 
beach. So I still have 5 months to go on that one. I'm gonna take it 
there after I get back from sea in april.
