factory tach rebuild
Has anyone had their factory tach rebuilt? Is the tach man still in business?

Re: factory tach rebuild
Those are nice but not the same as what I have. The LMC picture shows they have a 'window' (for lack of a better term) for two warning lights in the bottom of the gauge face and mine only has one 'window'.

Re: factory tach rebuild
Wilcox sells replacement boards that fit some but not all. You send em your tach and they replace the board and calibrate it.

Re: factory tach rebuild
So, I went ahead and sent my factory tach to the TachMan, www.tachman.com Best warranty of all the places I contacted and fastest turn around too. A couple places I never even got a reply from, others said they could update the electronics and then decided later they couldn't. Took 3 weeks from the day I shipped it to when I received it back. He gave good feedback and provided pictures of the finished product prior to shipping it back to me too. I haven't installed it yet, just got it back on Tuesday but looking forward to getting it installed this weekend weather and time permitting.

Re: factory tach rebuild
Got the rebuilt tach in and it works perfectly, smooth movement. Used to be jumpy and randomly go up and around to 4 or 5000 while driving.
