    Where did you get that tach from I like the black out face when it’s off

      Ebay... 3.5" tachometer. Has 7 different colors, shift light, warning light, buzzer, and logs data

  • @ernestomacaranasjr9748

    how does it cost?

    Question--- I need a tachometer just for timing. Can I plug the tachometer to the " battery " side of my HEI distributor, then unplug it after I'm finished?. Dont really want it inside. Of course I'll also use the " tach" plug on the distributor as well----

    I have the exact same Rev counter.. How do you set the gauge for 4 cylinder. My gauge came with no intructions

    • @doggngarage4975
      @doggngarage4975  Před 2 lety +1

      Hey, sorry it took so long to get back to you!
      Press and hold the up and down buttons at the same time for more than 2 seconds. This will unlock Setup Mode. Once in this mode, pressing the down button will change the number of cylinders. Match the number on the gauge with the number of cylinders you have. If no buttons are pressed for 5 seconds, it will leave Setup Mode and save your selection.
      If you have anymore questions, let me know. These gauges have quite a bit of features.

    Bought the same gauge installed tapped into the negative white wire on the coil, tbi 350 gauge works but will randomly spike rpm on gauge when car is at idle.

    I have the same exact meter , my question is I have 1980 c10 but it’s has a ls 5.3 , where would I connect the green wire ?

    • @doggngarage4975
      @doggngarage4975  Před rokem

      Are you running the 5.3l stock with EFI and ecu or conversion to carb? The type of management system will decide that.

    I have the same tack,but the wiring on it is red,black,orange,green,but I don't have a orange wire it's yellow, so is the yellow the same as the orange?

    I got the same gauge only I can not figure out the green wire want to install on my Ford F-150 2012 single cab . Please can get any help. Thank you.

      @doggngarage4975  Před 2 lety +1

      The green wire will go to an engine speed (rpm) source. You can find this a few different ways. In your case, I would either splice into a coil pack wire or a wire that runs to the original tachometer. Use a volt tester pen and tap into the wire's connection with the engine running. If you find a wire for the engine speed, the tester light will flash repeatedly at the pace of the engine speed.

    How can I install this on a multiple coil car

    • @doggngarage4975
      @doggngarage4975  Před 8 měsíci

      To my knowledge, you'll need a tachometer driver (adapter). I would use the instructions that comes with it.

    Ay bro I Bought something called called a Toyota Tazz, it's carburettor run and I can't find where the engine speed thing is

    • @doggngarage4975
      @doggngarage4975  Před 3 lety +1

      See if there's a black wire connected to the distributor. Tap into that and see if you get some readings.

  • @brandonharrom4542

    You should do a video on how programming that tachometer

    • @doggngarage4975
      @doggngarage4975  Před 3 lety

      I believe you would need to install a Diesel Tachometer Adapter, and wire the tachometer to that

    What brand is your tachometer?

      @doggngarage4975  Před rokem

      I don't remember which brand it was, but I got it on either Amazon or Ebay.

    Hello I recently purchased this. It will bot power on after install.
    Red- constant 12v
    Blk-Ground
    Yellow-Key On power source
    White-Dimmer
    Green-Tach Negative Side Coil
    Any help is appreciated!
    Thank you

      Did it not come with instructions on how to set it up? The 2 buttons on the right are used in the process. Im not sure that I still have the instructions myself.

    What kind of signal comes out from the negative side of the coil? is it a pulsating signal? I'm looking for such an rpm signal for my Arduino.
