Default please help

i just got a tachometer for my rpm thing installed and its off by 200. the guy that did the install is telling me there is no way to make it accurate. is this a lie and if so how do i make it accurate. also after setting it sometimes it changes a little on its own is there a way to fix that or is this something that just happens

that is complete bullshit. any good calibration tech can make a tach correct. i do it all the time at work. but sorry, i can only do liquid fed gauges. find a good gauge cal tech in your area and they should be able to do it. if it is a new gauge. return it.

your FACTORY tach is the one that is actually inaccurate, you Autometer read you real engine RPMs.

seriously, whats 200 rpm anyways? thats 1/5 of 1000 rpm man, which is what your tach reads on anyways. you have a shift light right? keep in mind that its 200 rpm off and adjust accordingly.
