title say it, i was wondering how much they charge to stop a tach from bouncing, with the tach working otherwise?

I called down there and they quoted $250.

Maybe I misunderstood them...

Isn't bouncy tach a symptom of a poor ground? If so, check your grounds first. It's cheaper.

bouncy tach is usually *not* your tachs fault!

i fixed mine (along with a few other gremlins) by getting a new relay board ...

well i will let the cat out of the bag

i found something internal that fixes some of the bouncy tach problems. i am just wondering what would be a fair price to charge for the service. i would feel guilty charging over 50 bucks, its not hard just takes some time. i would also calibrate the tach to 3000 rpms or so.

Heck, I put a big fat cap on mine and now it's rock solid, except when the ground wire gets loose...

Matter a fact, here's my notes on it:

Tachometer bounce getting to be too much,
Added 2650 uF 10V across the coil winding. This helped a lot, no more bounce, reasonable response.

Been great ever since.

i found a mechanical thing inside that is affected by wear ( ie old age ) basicly if you smack you dash and it jumps i can fix it

gigure out how to trigger a tach from a mallory cdi.... 12V squar wave at 20 percent duty cycle yada yada

not a problem, 3 parts needed a small capacitor, and transitor and another capacitor

basicly the transistor can trigger to ground when it gets triggered by the cdi box, the capacitors are to level out the spikes
