Was driving home from work this morning, and the tach needle flatlined.
Now here's the clutch- I drive a L-jet car. So the problem can't be at the dizzy because the tach signal triggers the F.I.,, Right??? Any help would be appreciated... |

The tach signal is from the + side of the coil .... how 'bout the wire from the + side of the coil to the relay board to the main harness thru the fuse panel to the guage? Run a wire, temporarily from the + side of the coil to the tach input and see if it works again.
