Tach cluster for early diesel?
« on: March 03, 2017, 01:52:37 am »
I got this along with some other parts, and though it looked like a good fit for my 1981, I never did try to do anything with it. I could be wrong. If anyone can use it, paypal me $20 and i`ll ship it to you.

That cluster is for a gasser.  Do you know if the odometer still works?  I've been told that you can use parts from one to fix another, having a working odometer would be nice.

Nah.. that's a mk1 gasser. It has an OXS indicator and no glow indicator.

MK2 clusters have screw flanges at the bottom, not posts.
