Tach - W Terminal
« on: March 17, 2013, 02:45:51 am »
So my 82 happens to have an alternator with a W terminal. Originally wired for the up shift indicator.

I'm just looking for someone to confirm. That means I will be able to retrofit any tach into my car due to it already having a w terminal source right?

Any diesel tach. The W terminal doesn't give a 2-pulse-per-rotation signal like a gasser's tach uses.
