I need some help.I have the above listed part, and it needs a tach signal. When i hook it up the tach wire coming off the ECU the switch works but my tachometer doesn't. I figure the ecu can only supply enough power for one of them to work.

SO, where is another place I can hook this up too. I have a stock ignition system so no msd box to connect it too.

thanks in advance

That's odd that the tach quit. Did you just splice into the tach wire? That shouldn't have made the tach quit. Regardless, I think the loop at the back of the coilpack subharness might work. I'm not real sure about that though...
