Way to go - congrats! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif)

I have a working tach if you need it, let me know.

If you know the tach is good, check the connection back at the distributor, it may have worked its way loose. Also make sure you're getting +12 and a good ground at the tach.
