yenko guage question

dgie41 · #1 07-11-2009, 01:03 AM

WOW 142 views and only 4 replies and most not on this guage from 2 people in this forum. That tells me that this guage is rare and probably worth a couple hundred dollars since few know much about it. Anyways, It was mentioned that I need a sender unit to make this work. I am not certain but when I took the back cover off there is already electronics there. Why would I need more? doesnt sound right...

Dennis,

I was just poking fun. Swipe all the photos you like

. Darren, Both Dennis and I tried to help but you did not give any more info. Here is a link to some 970 series tach instructions I posted on this site for just this type of situation:

The tach will work without the monitor for a short time, then it will most likely fry. I have sold those panel mount tachs in that style from $50-$200 on Ebay. It really depends on timing and condition. The $200 one was NOS and was the tach I got those instructions from.

Jason,
I am just getting a little frustrated at how hard it is to find info on these tachs on the web. The tach is not even going into a Camero it is going into my 72 plymouth satellite with electronic ignition (yep I am a mopar guy) I really want to make this one work and do not want to fry it. Thanks for the diagram, looks detailed would all this work on a plymouth satellite with a chrysler 400 (electronic ignition,) or should I send it to one of those people and have them change out the guts in it? expensive...

What's a Camero? C'mon now, it's a poor man's Carvette. Everybody knows that!

Yes, it will work in your car. You wll most likely need a SW 990D transmitter. Does the mopar electronic ignition have a "Tach" output like a GM HEI?

professor james I said Camero sorry I meant to say camarro.

Jason, not sure if it is the same as a gm. I did rewire the whole car with a painless kit. My current cheap tach is tapped off the coil (green) do you have this sender that I need? If so are you selling it? Further what's in this box anyways?
