This is so cool. I had showed my 13 yr old grandson a Sun Super Tach like that not 30 min ago! It has been in my tool box for 30 years. He did not know what is was. I do not think my tach requires a sending unit?? I love these posts.

I was wondering: does anyone know if this tach requires the sender unit? It is the SST-801. I tried googling that model number and all I seem to find are people with the same question and no exact answer. Any tach experts out there?

Not an expert, but I thought the 700 and lower series needed the sending units and the 800 series were good for conventional and or transitorized/CD ignitions without a sending unit---I think I have a 802 for the CD unit.........

Joe's right. The 800 Series was the "electronic" tach, not the "electric" tach. The 800 was the "SuperTach".
Steve, I believe your nos sender was made in '71. The tach you have does not need the sender you have. Verne |

Come to think of it, the early Super Tachs that required the sending units were only available as 7k and 9K. And, they were green stripe faces weren't they?Rats, now I gotta run to the garage and dig mine out again!!!!! ![]()

This is one of those connundrums where you need a definite answer. I wouldn't want to hook it up the worng way and fry the unit, or if I sell it I don't want to steer somebody wrong with the incorret advice. I did see an SST-802 unit on ebay that the guy advertized as one of the first Sun tachs to not need a sending unit.
