not that i don't mind helping....but sometimes it's like, damn, can't these people do ANYTHING for themselves


sorry johnhb this is in no way a personal attack on you

 

can any one help with the tachmeter problem

 

theres usually a blue wire in the fender/near the fender on the drivers side that doesn't go to anything, that is the pulse wire for your tach. Make sure your tach is set for the right number of pulses or it won't work right

 

thanx for the tip

Look at the top on the back of the tranny, I'll bet you forgot to plug in the speedo sensor. That or it's not plugged in all the way, that's why you got a CEL.

No need to run the wire all the way out to the distributor, but if you do it's the blue wire. Just tap the solid blue wire (there's only 1) on the harness behind your gauge cluster, left plug i believe. It's a lot easier and takes a lot less wire.
