No Tach

[jackw]

Just picked up a new 2009 Yaris, manual with no tach. Where would I find a formula converting speed to RPM for each gear?

Get an Ecometer. I missed a tach bad, but this has much more than just at tach. http://www.autometer.com/ecometer/ Of course we could get some ratio's.

Gammaray - I agree that the lack of a tach is sorely noted. A conversion table would be in the spirit of the low budget car. Even if I do come up with a conversio, I'll probably be spending a few more bucks to get a Scangauge. They make it easy when you just have to plug into the OBD port.

Ecometer plugs into the OBD port as well :smile:

Or you could just buy a tach from your local auto parts store for less than $50 install it and mount it in a convenient place..
