How do you figure engine hours to miles?
There may be another reason for the difference between the mileage
and the engine hours. The odometer part of the speedometer may be
bad, that is may not accurately count. They are known to stick on the
1/10 digit. I would check it on the road for a couple of miles to see
if that is a problem.
