jeffs98 · 03-07-2005, 07:08 AM

They installed a circuit board in it and used meter assy.! THey also put another pointer on it! Cost me $149.73 to my door!

That's not cheap, but it's not a bad deal at all considering they are about the only company so far that can repair these things. What about face restoration. Will they do that too? Do they have a website?

i've been waiting for this post for a while! so, the tach works just like new, eh? mine was a lil slow, but i want it to be as responsive as my foot!

jeffs98 · 03-07-2005, 04:41 PM

The tach works great and he does something to them so that they don't do that jumping around thing like so many of them do!! I think that he does restoration on the faces as well but you will have to ask him!! He is a real cool guy and is easy to talk to!

jeffs98- you know what would be AWESOME is a video clip of the tach in action.. maybe start the video w/ the key OFF then turn the key on, start the engine, and rev it a few times so we can see the action.... do you have the means to do this?

I took the plunge and sent mine down. He got it today and called me up tonite, he got it done and its ready to ship... Apparently, my tach had a really rare circuit board and he doesn't even have parts for it, i thought i was screwed, but he "upgraded" me to the newer style... calibrated it, and its ready to go... same price...

awesome guy... really nice!

great experience.

I told ya he is cool and fast!! That is one thing i don't mind paying a little extra for!!! I am happy that you had good luck 75stepside!!
