Default jumping tach?

i just installed a gsr cluster into my hatch and the tach jumps to 0 after i hit about 5800- 6k rpms, what could be the cause? i pulled my distro and made sure all my connections were tight, anything else that could be causing this? i wanted the gsr tach cuz im putting in skunk2 stage 2's on a b16 and i wanted something that could read to 9k but now the tach is totally worthless

i know a bad distributor will cause a tach to jump. did you solder all the wiring you did on the cluster?

Possible sign of a bad ignitor.
