My tach seems to indicate okay up to about 1,000 RPM and then wiggles and drops to zero. Reducing the engine to idle does not get it working again. I pulled out the instrument panel and visually checked the connections which were very clean and tight; same thing with the connections at the engine. I am thinking of buying another tach and putting it in to see if that will fix it. Of course, when I pulled the panel out the battery gauge stopped working. So I will trouble shoot that next time I am at the boat. Any thoughts on the tach?
If I do get another one, am I correct in thinking it would be a 12 pole tach for my 1992 60 HP TLENE?
Thanks!

Re: Squirrely tach
Wish I could help but that's not my area of expertise. However it does seem like you have a bad tach or connection somewhere.

Re: Squirrely tach
Rotate the pluse switch back and forth a few times , that cleans the contacts then put it back in the original position , that often fixes it
If it aint broke your not having enough fun
