    Tach drops to zero over a certain RPM

    The smaller resistor did open up my range of adjustment however it seems my inductance loop is weak. At higher revs the needle will reach a certain point then start to back down. I have tried adding more loops and it did help but still won't remain stable. Any thoughts on how to sort out the...

    Tach drops to zero over a certain RPM

    Tom, Thank you for the feed back. I did see the 4cyl bit about the resistor change but did not expect that to make the tach behave like it did. I will replace that resistor and test it out this weekend. I will let you know how it turns out. Great write up about re working these tachs...
