1985 california tach??? - willbhere4u - 04-09-2012

I picked up a tachometer off a 1985 300d turbo California model it had the normal crank balance pick up sensor but the amplifier is smaller and has nothing under the cap???? I also garbed the tach what do i need to do to hook it up???

I've already mounted the sensor and ran the cable to the amp port and mounted the gauge in the cluster I need to hook up from the ?amp? to the tachBig Grin

looks like the 1985 tach used a different sensor in the trans! But the crank sensor and amp base should still work! looks like I will need to find a tach amp now Big Grin

Yea the 85 Cali has a retarded tach setup, sensor on the trans, goes through the EGR computer ect ect

Well I also have a tachometer from an 1982 300d so I can use that the balance sensor I pulled from that 1985 cali looks like a normal and same for the amp base I hope I can use them
