Okay, I did the tachometer fix and it set the tach so when I turn my car on its a little below Zero...where as it use to be around 6000.......The problem is the tach doesn't move at all. Even before the fix the tach would never move from that one spot (6000 RPM). Any ideas on what is wrong?? I will try to get pics of the tach up tomorrow but I would really appreciate it if I got some input

 

The first one is car off...second is car switched on...third is engine on.......thats all the Tach does...anybody know whats wrong with it?

 

Maybe ?

Already did that fix, I think it has something to do with my coil or the signal the computer suppose to send??? Idk....

 

Mine is doing the same after a carb swap, I have tried everything I could find info on about this issue. Today I pulled the instrument panel and wiggled it in and out while the car was running. It seemed to move the tach some, I am thinking maybe the connectors are not making a solid connection. I will try and bend the copper tabs and let you know if that helps.

 

k, thnx

 

Well I tried bending the copper tabs on the plug from the harness, where the instrument panel plugs in today. I got them bent enough for a better connection, but that did not help either. I will keep searching.

 

I found some info in the service manual to check the tach. I cant get to my car before the weekend. But the info is on page ( 8A-81-7&8) . Hope this helps.
