Has anybody experienced this? I'm looking at a car with a dead tach and in all my years I've never seen it. Thoughts / experiences / causes / solutions?

whoa whoa whoa....I was being halfway facetious with my remark. If you happen to have a second tach then yes. Otherwise swap one with a buddy. Or borrow Iceman's spare tach.
all joking aside, if you don't have the wiring schematic, we can probably figure out how to post it here.

Yeah, no worries, I've got a good tach or 2 kickin' around. I have just never heard of one quitting. The bloody wire probably came off the back!! or something stupid. I've got the Bentley manual for diagrams etc... thanks.

Mine sputtered a couple of times during the winter and then stopped completely for a week or two. I didn't do anything and it started working again and has been working fine ever since. Sender?
