If you know who to talk to about this please let me know.  I found out the
hard way that a gas Vanagon tach won't work in a diesel Vanagon (I just
assumed it would, but the signals are different).  I am trying to locate a
diesel Jetta tach right now to modify one of the gas Vanagon instrument
clusters I have left for a customer.  If anyone can help me either find a
good used diesel tach from a Jetta, or find some kind of rectifier to allow
me to use the gas tach in a diesel, please let me know.

Thanks,
