Default Wired tach problem when vtec kicks.

It seems that when vtec engages my tach starts jumping around. I've been told it could be something to do with the distro...


any ideas?

jumping rpms could be cause by bad connection inside the distributor...if it's only during vtec then i dunno if it's the same problem

Just take off your dist. Cap and check the connectons on the inside.

When vtec hits Im sure is causes alot more vibration per say then driving -4k.
