| Post subject: | help needed for factory tach problems |
I have a '69 Camaro with factory tach and cannot get it to work with either stock points setup or MSD6 using the MSD tach output. I cannot find the mythical 'filter' that MSD refer to so guess it's gone already. Needle goes to 1000rpm with ign on and engine not running, stays there even when driving spare dizzy with electric drill to simulate running engine.Turn sidelights on, revs drop to 500rpm. Turn headlights on, rpm drops to zero like voltage drop is affecting it. Here's the thing: car has had a repro wiring loom and I have already found two errors which caused lighting problems so I'm wondering if the dash part is also wrong and causing this issue. Anyone able to tell me for definite which connection on the tach is which? Multi plug connector goes onto a 3 prong unit arranged like an inverted 'U'. One is 12v power, one is earth and the remaining one is pulse but which is which? Does this sound like it could be the problem? Thanks, any help appreciated.......Nige |
