Re: SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THIS TACH!
Some tachs come with wires you have to cut, so it can work right with 4, 6, and 8 cylinder engines. Are these the two black wires you speak of?

Re: SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THIS TACH!
what kind of tach is it?? whatever brand it is go to their website, should show you instructions to hook it up. Or just use the tach in your gauge cluster and learn when to shift instead of having a annoying light in your eye when you need to shift

I'll bet the two black wires are for the gauge illumination if they go to the gauge face. Light bulbs don't have a polarity.
