I just picked up a factory CJ tach, and Im trying to test it out on my FORD truck, it has the same duraspark ignition..

there are 2 red wires coming from teh tack with connectors, one male, the other female..

does any one know where this hook up in relation to the coil?

thanks

/wwwthreads_images/icons/tongue.gif Hmmmm.......the factory diagram that I have shows a three-wire hookup....black is ground....yellow is ign power feeder.....and violet hooks to the duraspark violet wire. That shows clear up thru 1986. Are you sure that is a stock unit? 1974 and 1975 shows a yellow (+) feeder and a red wire to the ignition module. My book doesn't show a 76-'79 for some reason./wwwthreads_images/icons/frown.gif

/wwwthreads_images/icons/tongue.gif Hmmm....we can't Jeep-verify that BBKNS. We have never had a tach for the CJ, and none of our friends do either, so we are strictly slaves to the Haynes manual here/wwwthreads_images/icons/crazy.gif
