Tap the ASI..

If you really are in a dead engine situation, then both your ASI and Altimeter are not being 'tapped' by the engine vibrations. So your instruments have become as reliable as those in a glider. It is not uncommon for glider pilots to tap their instruments, and find an additional loss of 200 feet, or 10 knots of missing airspeed.
