Neutral rev increase speedo mph?

Just noticed this yesterday when I was checking fuel pressure. I reved up the motor in neutral and the mph went up on the speedo. Never noticed this before.

I am guessing that you have something out of wack. Unless it affects while driving or makes other problems, no real isues that you should be worried about. I never looked, so have no idea if my car ever did the same thing.

Thanks and I never noticed it before. I am just chasing down a few gremlins right now with a hanging idle and running lean condition and just paying more attention to things.

It's normal...mine's always done that! It's VERY common on our cars.
