Typically black to ground, white to the dash lights, red to power, and green to the distributor. I just did a sunpro tach that way.

Look right were the other wires go into the distributor and you should see that it is marked for a tach,

It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!
