I've done some searching and have not yet found a thread that I'm sure has been covered at some point.
The tach in my 72 does not work. The car was converted from fuel injection to carbs long ago. I believe the reason the tach does not work is because it is no longer getting a signal from the computer (no longer have an ECU in the car). How does one use the factory tach when I no longer have FI? In other car projects, I just ran a line from negative side of the coil to the back of the tach. But I don't think that will work here, will it? |
