I want to install an OMC outboard tachometer on my 1980 Johnson 35 HP. After reading about 50 tachometer threads, I think I want to attach either one of the yellow leads from the stator to the pulse input of the tach. I'd appreciate confirmation on this. Also, what is the correct setting for number of poles?

2 cylinder, 4-35 HP, 1977-1991 motors have 10 alternator poles so the tach should be set to 5P.
