Tach o meter ?

Post by van »

I would like to maybe add a tachometer to my model 15 and would like to know if this is doable,if so what kind of tach can I use.Secondly Will a tach such as an AutoMeter work ,and what about the hook ups ,sending unit (what type)on the engine (where?),or is there possibly a sender and wireing already configured on the bus already.Our 15 (1989)does not have a tach and does'nt look like it ever did ,any help or suggestions would be great :) :? 8-)
