60 series tacho

Post by brendan rooke »

hey if your still having trouble with your tacho not workin go to the wreckers and get one out of a later model 60 (61 or 62). I did this to mine last week and its workin fine and they look heaps neater aswell. The newer ones have a 5 grand tacho. Just about every 60 ive seen including my old one has a stuffed tacho.

tacho

Post by brendan rooke »

sorry mate got no pics. I wouldnt know how to put them on anyway :?. The tacho is from a 61 series with the newer dash. All the guages (speedo, taco etc) screw and plug into the old dash. The newer speedo and tacho have the little lines between the numbers instead of the blocks, and yeah im stuffed if i know why they go to 5 grand ive only ever hit 3500 in my girl and thats enough.
