Re: tach problem 95 astro boat

I hope you gets some responses here shawn. I'm dealing with two boats with intermittant tach issues. One is a dead stock wiring/ignition system that causes two different tachs to do two different things.

The other is a replacement tach on a boat using an MSD ignition. Sometimes the tach agrees with my digital tach and sometimes it reads very high.

I don't know where to go to answer these issues. I feel if I just went out and bought new tachs I'd have the same issues.

Set the switch on the back of the tach to 6P
