I'll give it an extra loop this weekend and I'll report back thanks

ok so right now i have the car running with the old tach and its all bouncy. i was told the upgrade would sort of fix it or make it less since the distributor is a electronic from the zx. I do have the L28 and the current 240z tach does not read the rpm's that well since it was designed for the L24. so i can just leave it as i currently have it and just run another cable from the neg (-) side of the coil to the terminal on the tach. Thanks Edit: Thanks I got it working. all I need to do is run a cable back to the dash and im all set. thanks again for replaying. out of 4 different post on 4 different sites this is the only one i got a reply back.

so I connect cables in B and connect the black cable in the A box to the negative side. right? and on the tach I connect the negative side of the coil to the post on the back of the tach were the loop would be right? I changed the housing from the 240z to the 280z so the cables on the right of the tach were changed the black one is now on the bottom 280z. were before it use to be on the top. is this correct? Thanks again

I have done the E12-80 Distributor upgrade withe the MSD Blaster 2 my z has been running great after the upgrade. Since the upgrade I have been running my z without the tach it hasn't worked since I did the upgrade. Anyway I'm trying to figure out how the wiring goes. I have been reading up on it but I think my problem is that I don't remember which wires are the ones that go to the resistor(removed after upgrade) I uploaded a picture of my setup. I have a Connected the E12-80 to the coil and found the current wire and connected it since I did not have the tach I did not do anything else with the rest of the wires. I have four wires 3 are not connected right now. A) Was connected to the coil with the points distributor. Green/White and the other is black with yellow tip thicker cable B ) Was connected to the resistor. the cable one is black/yellow and the other is black. C) Added for the E12-80 distributor The only way that I can get the Z to start is to connect the (pic B ) black wire to the coil all others don't work. I have a four cable tach on my z and just got a 280z tach that ill be putting in. But I still have a question about this. On the tach I moved everything to the other 240z housing but I still dont understand what I'm suppose to do with the white/loop cable that has the black and read tape on each side. I know that the black wire moved from the top (240z tach) to the bottom (280z tach) Thanks in advance
