No, the tachometer is a totally different issue, usually requiring you to replace and re-solder some resistors and connections on the back of the cluster.

If the gauges have ever been removed they were probably not set back in far enough. For me simply removing the whole cluster and seating it properly fixed my tach and speedo. It's worth the 5 minutes.
