Tach wire termination if no tach?

[rich weyand]

Yeah.  And I replaced the distributor cap/rotor/coil with the Accel parts (8122 and 140013), and realized that what I thought was a (brown) tach wire was an extra loop of the (very dirty pink) ignition wire to the distributor.  So there is no tach wire on mine.

The new tach/fuel combo gauge is on the way from gmsports, though, so it looks like the instrument panel is coming apart (again!) this weekend.

Oh, and I can recommend the Accel parts listed and the Taylor 74206 helical-stainless-steel-core spark plug wires.  Very nice spark now!

Flying magnet pickups are proven technology.

Rich - did you ever get the answer to your question?

     Just a curiosity question.  I know Irish does mudding in his truck, though think he meant his new diesel.

yes its for the diesel, if i needed a tach reading for the gasser then i would pull off the distributor instead of making things more complicated.
