Gas Tacho / Revcounter Conversion to Diesel W terminal

<< < (32/32)

ORCoaster:
I use this all the time.  I try to find those old clusters on CL and convert them to work with a diesel.  I think I still have two to do.  Not a real big priority but If I just want to goof off at the workbench they are there calling my name. 

RabbitJockey:
hello i am glad to hear it, I can't believe how long its been since I did that conversion. I used to convert them and sell them but I never charged enough to make it worthwhile. Now i think it's easier and cheaper to just add the glowplug led and then use a dakota digital adapter with the unmodified gas tach. But for a DIY person at home with some soldering skills converting the tach yourself is a great option and only costs a few pennies and your time.

ORCoaster:
My take is that you end up with a VDO/ VW factory-looking unit when you are done.  Toss that clock outta there.  You probably have a digital one on the radio or phone display anyway.
