Miles or kilometers???
I was wondering if the meter to count how much my 1986 T/A has been driven measures miles or kilometers.
I am almost certain it measures miles in my T/A (was imported from USA, built in Norwood-Ohio)) but would like to know for sure.
Thanks,
Nonni

I couldn't say for sure, but if the car is running, you can always check the odometer against some known distance, either in KM's or miles, and compare.

It should say right on the speedo. Under the odometer it should say kms if it measures kilometers.
The speedo numbers will be what the odometer calculates. If the speedo is in miles and kms then the larger numbers are the odometer's calculations.

Thanks for the info, the larger numbers are miles and smaller are kilometers. So it measures miles
