1 Tachometer Chaos Sun Apr 26, 2015 12:42 pm

Hi Guys,
I need some help.
I'm modifying a K100,it has 1100 throttle bodies and I'm using 16 valve Motronic ignition,ECU and loom.
I have a Koso RX2N but can't get anywhere with it. The needle waves around wildly and after wiring it in every way Koso advise,I give up. Iv'e tried the RPM signal adapter and that didn't help which is a shame because it would be a great unit as everything you need is to eye.
So,in the spare parts den I found a Smiths electronic tacho that would have been OK as a temporary unit as I'm
trying to book a track day to do some engine testing-It's had lots done! Obviously a track test is no good without a tachometer so I wire the Smiths unit to find it reads a half engine speed (I think) no matter which way I configure the internal select switches.
Is there some odd technicality of the Motronic tacho signal output I'm unaware of because it seems to affect both instruments?
Gentlemen,I'm in your hands!!
Mike.
