Mk2 S1 Tacho

Recommended Posts

Hope someone may know the answer, my series1 tacho is reading probably double it was fitted with a distributor based electronic unit by the previous owner which is connected directly across the coil contacts. Have read many threads some mentioning converting the tacho but not sure whats involved or if that is the problem believe the unit may have been supplied by Burtons . Any help greatly appreciated

You have an RVI tacho that don't normally wok with electronic ignition, you can get it converted to RVC spec that will work with electronic ignition.

Costs vary depending on who does it, or you can buy a conversation kit from ebay and do it yourself.

I bought an RVC rev counter from an MG and adapted it to fit my mk2.
