did you change the cluster to another model??like an s2k or an newer si cluster??...im asking because it sounds like your problem lies behind the cluster with a loose ground

no.. car is a 93 civic, the only cluster swap was for the same one but wit a tach... its funny becuz when the tach jumps around and gets too low.. the car dies...?

well mu guess would be aq dizzy problem...maybe you got a faulty one or something....if not, check all your wiring and make sure there is no splices that are exposed and grounding out

I had that feeling. I had the same problem with my H and I could never figure it out the tach flickers right? Well I just got done with my new build its geting fired up next thursday I was in the same boat as you I honestly think its in the wireing check them wires going to your distributor. I hooked up my buddys dissy and it still did the same thing so that whats its got to be. I got a fresh new harness now from hasport so I dont think im gonna have that problem anymore hopefully
