it says to calibrate it at highway speeds. you need to have a small flat head screw driver(eye glass repair style) and ther eis a hole on teh back side of the tach.

i just started the truck after having it checked at my local shop real quick, they told me is was at 750. so i set it there.

another way is to get it close to what you think is idle. go for a cruise and floor it, should max at 2500 rpms if itis stock. stop bump it up if needed etc...
