Re: fixing my 91 tach

There is a faulty resistor bank on the circuit board of the tach. You need to establish which pathway of the board is faulty and bypass it by soldering a resister in place. I used a variable resistor so I can actually calibrate my tach with a computer readout.

Search and you will find detailed instructions. There is a long thread floating around somewhere about fixing the 91-92 tachs. It's really not as bad as it sounds, I did mine in an hour to two, including taking the gauge cluster out.
