I'm Awesome
Hi Everyone!
First off, I want to say Thank You all for all your support as a new guy on this Forum. I've been trying hard to better myself as a person and really appreciate all the kind folks on here from all around the world. Long live the GMT400 trucks!
Now for the question: I have a 1997 Chevrolet K1500 ECSB with the Vortec 5700. Every time I go on the highway I can only go 85mph. If I push my truck any further the speedometer slams the needle all the way down to the 100mph mark and the truck sounds weird until I back off. It's super scary and I haven't seen anyone answer my question on this forum. Is this a wiring issue with the speedometer? Is this a speed limiter? I'm honestly not sure. Just wondering if anyone else has had a similar issue on their 96+ truck.
