Default Wacky Tachy

My first post here since the new forum. OK, I have a 1990 Car as you all know. My tach is COMPLETELY out there. Very erratic. What will fix this thing to make it the way it was.? New filter? Or do I just plunk down the $75 or so and get a nice shift lite tach and mount it on the pillar?

I'd appreciate any replies.

I don't trust the stock tach and mounted a small shift light in the center of the cluster. As far as your problem, needless to say check the basics first (connections) and go from there.

Good luck
