I have a 123 ignition on my 2.4 six motor but I am not sure how to set up my tach to work with the ignition.. can I use a 914 tach? What else do I need?

Black/Purple stripe wire to coil negative.

Unsure what the wire colors are for the /6. So it may not be the tach wire that is on the /4.

But for a tach you just have a wire to the coil negative. Dizzy does not enter the chat.
