1992 Rinker 4.3 Merc. LX Alpha I, Gen. II. Two batteries with a Perko switch.
Took the boat out of storage and after rebuilding the Carb, I was adjusting the air micture screws. Upon paying close attention to the tach, I noticed it was jumping around. I tapped on it and it moved around.
Yes, I did search the threads and found a couple emails but nothing adequate to answer my questions so I decided to post the questions.
I have to admit, I have no idea how tachs work, except to say, don't they normally hook up to the #1 cylinder? I checked the wires on the back of the guage and none of the wires were loose.
Any help would be appreciated.
