Tacho Wiring
Fitted tacho to dash and now ready to wire , Have instructions from box which sort of helps but not having a standard distributor/coil set up I am unsure what to do . Pic of dash and distributor attatched. If anyone has the same set up would love to hear how you wired it or which wire to splice
Thanks in advance rob |

Re: Tacho Wiring
Look in front of your plug, should be two spades to plug into. They should be in front of that plug.

Re: Tacho Wiring
If there is a wire in the tach spot you may already have a wire underneath the dash for the tach. You COULD splice into it, but I would follow it and know where it went. You could also unplug it and see if it affects anything, then run a new wire to your tach. Here is a link to an HEI drawing.
