I Guess I Screwed Up...
I did a tune up today on my ’90 L98, cap, rotor, coil, module, plugs and wires. Now the tachometer does not work. What did I do wrong? I connected the tan wire to the distributor were it says tach, and the other to bat. The car started right up, and seems to run well.
Any ideas what I did wrong?
Thanks for your help,
Randy

Bad connection, jiggle it, reconnect it, scratch the corrosion off with a knife blade.
The tach wire is actually white, but they fade to a tan color, so I'm sure you hooked up the right one.
It also goes to a tach filter (cylinder shape) that is bolted to the backside of the passengerside head. The wire is fragile right here, make sure it didn't break off.
