Speedo and tachometer not working
Hi Guys!
So i finally resurrected this '84 t/a from the field and got it to run and drive. To fix it, i had to replace the distributor with a one wire distributor and it started right up. (not sure if thats related to my issue) My problem is that now All of the gauges work EXCEPT for the speedometer, and tachometer. the tach just does a bunch of crazy movements, and the speedometer doesn't move at all. Also, the needle is broken off on the speedo side. Is there any wiring i can check or any suggestions on how to go about fixing this? all other gauges seem to be working fine
