I just came across this line in a craigslist add.

"The odometer reads almost 21000 miles. But as I mentioned above, I've changed the sprockets. And in doing so, the speedometer is not true. And if the speedometer is not true, neither is the odometer. So the mileage on the odometer is greater than what is actually on the engine."

Huh?

That actually makes sense. If the speedo is reading faster than actual speed, than it will log more miles than is actually being traveled. BUT, how did a sprocket change affect his speedo? Countershaft speedo sensor?
