i just bought a tachometer for my car but it has a seperately mounted ignition coil. The instructions say to mounte it on the negative on the coil but there are 4 wires that split into 2 clips that plug into the coil.

There are 2 wires on one clip that are black. The other clip has 2 wires that are grey.

Do i have to splice the wires on the clips that clip onto the coil? and if i do which ones do i splice.

Thanks in advance for your help

um......... was my question really that stupid for no one to answer me? or is it just that no has ever hooked up a tach to a sperately mounted ignition coil?

 

i've never mounted a tach to a seperately mounted coil before. i've mounted an electric one--consisted of 3 wires--that took about 30 minutes to hook up. Auto-Zone brand baby!! WOOOOOOOOOO
