Tach
by Robert Bohl- 0 replies

The tachometer in my '71 240Z always reads about 200 r.p.m. low, but works OK otherwise. Is there an adjustment, resistor, sender, etc. that can be replaced to correct the readings? I don't want to yank the tach out, or replace the unit just for an error problem. R. Bohl

My '73 (just got the newly rebuilt L28 running in her) has a weird signal quirk. Right works fine, but left stays solid when at idle. When I give it a little gas, it blinks normally, just like the right one.

After all the work I've put into repairing the rusty area under the battery tray... I will *NEVER* replace a battery with the water/acid type again. The gel batteries are cool because they never leak and you can mount them in any direction. A few types are available. You've probably seen the Optima at various locations. Plan on spending at least $100. http://www.4unique.com/battery/battery_products.htm > -----Original Message----- > From: Chris Robson [mailto:robsonc@home.com] > Sent: Saturday, May 27, 2000 6:28 PM > To: JFShamus117@aol.com; 240z-club@peak.org > Subject: RE: <240z-club> electrical woes > > > -- Group Message from "Chr…

Hi Guys (everyone): An additional comment for thoes following this thread... The EI module should be mounted on a heat sink - on the inner-fenderwell. It's original position on the side of the distributor was not a good one - too much heat there. (mounted on the distributor and right above the e…

Original post by: Andrew Levy Many of us have heard the down side of these modules as being limited to 5000 rpm on an 8 cylinder eng. Actually these modules are not limited by the operating frequency but rather the original coils were the limiting factor. The original coils where mounted in the top of the distributor cap, where the temperature is quite high. Also as the frequency increases the amount of time for the primary winding to cool decreases, so the effect is as the temp of the coil rises so does the resistance in the coil, which decreases the output. This is why MSD claims that if you replace the coil in the cap with there Blaster coil it will in…
