    tach problem need help

    finaly got to take my boat out for the first time after buying it a month ago. I have a few problems 1 the tach works good until around 4000 rpm then falls to zero the motor seems to run fine with no alarms any thoughts on this? 2 the speedo is inop where should I start to troubleshoot it? The engine is a 1988 evinrude 100hp model W100WTLM. there are a few other minor problems (livewells some other gauges ) the boat is a 1987 fisher sv-18gt which I got for 2000 my insurance company said it is worth 3500 so I am happy and will get it all fixed Randy

    Re: tach problem need help (vaskeet)

    Could be a tach, rectifier or a bad connection.
