same thing happened to me. luckly i had my handy dandy monster tach. wired that bad boy to the dist. and poof there me rpm's.
jsut liek the last guy said. the tach needs a dist wire to work right. use testers and follow the wires from the tach, and make sure they go somewhere in the direction of the tach. Good luck.
