Ok it is finally driving me nuts and I have asked before and never gotten a straight responce! My tachometer is driving me crazy. It works sometimes then it spikes to 9000 rpm and does that horible buzzer!!! and gets stuck there till i bang on the steering wheel. People will start to say that there is a guy in a second gen RX-7 that is crazy and drives beating on the steering wheel.



It is driving me nuts. and since we are already talking about the gauges my oil preassure dosent work neither!!! I could really use some help..

The wire for the tack hooks up at the trailing coil maybe it has a lose connection.

Yeah its the one in the back. You could always follow the trailing plug wires to figure it out to.

the coils are marked with a T and a L, so is the block

so basically just look around for any loose wires, and if I dont find any? will a bad clusted do this even though some times it works perfect.
