Hi, Can anyone explain to me why this would happen: After installing my new tach, I started the engine. The reading was way too high (2-3000 or more). So I went in the back and hooked up my tach/dwell meter. When the meter was connected in the back, the readings matched up, i.e. the tach on the dash dropped to what seems to be a correct reading. With the tach/dwell disconnected, the dash tach jumps up. I've checked the dip switches, they're correct, 1 - On, 2 - Off, 3 - Off. I tried fiddling with the potentiometer screw in the back of the tach and I was able to bring the reading down a bit, but not able to make it correct. Thanks.. --------------------------------------------------- Anthony Hecht '80 Camper "Badunkadunk" Somewhere Between Virginia and Tuesday http://travelinvan.com ---------------------------------------------------
