What is an odometer?
An odometer is an instrument that tells you the distance - usually in kilometers or miles - a wheeled vehicle has traveled based on the number of turns made by its wheels.
Does tire size affect odometer readings?
Yes. An odometer countr the number of turns. A bigger wheel has a longer circumference, so one turn equals a longer distance travelled. Change to bigger(diameter, not width) wheels and the odo (and the speedo too) will read low (= show less mileage/speed than actually travelled). Change to smaller (diameter, not width) and they will read high (show more mileage/speed than actually travelled).
How does Mr Wormwood turn back the odometer in a car?
In the book "Matilda" by Roald Dahl, Mr. Wormwood, Matilda's father, turns back the odometer in a car by using a drill. He removes the speedometer and then manipulates the device to roll back the numbers, effectively deceiving potential buyers about the car's true mileage. This dishonest practice reflects his unscrupulous nature and lack of integrity.
Why wont my 1996 Lincoln Town Car shift into overdrive?

How does the odometer work on a 1996 TR Opel Astra - manual or electric?
The odometer on a 1996 Opel Astra typically operates mechanically, using a series of gears connected to the vehicle's speedometer cable. As the vehicle moves, the rotation of the wheels turns the cable, which in turn drives the odometer gears to record the distance traveled. This mechanical system contrasts with modern vehicles that often use electronic sensors to track mileage. However, the specific type of odometer can vary based on the model and market, so it's advisable to check the vehicle's manual for exact details.
What is a bicycle odometer?
A bicycle odometer was once a mechanical instrument that counts the number of turns of the wheels, and shows the total distance travelled. Nowadays, a bicycle computer does the same thing, but digitally, and showing more than simply distance travelled.
