I am told adding an original tach to my 245 is as easy as 123, is it true that 200 1975

the car is wired for it, and all I have to do is run a wire to the coil. I am a stickler for originality, but cannot resist this mod.

It's a simple procedure - whether the wire is already there or not on a '75, I'm not sure.

It's not really a mod if it's an OEM part, right? :) We won't tell anyone. BTW, there is also an optional "Fuel Economy" (read : vacuum) gauge available for that spot. These are quite rare, though, and the tach would be much more useful.

Run the wire the panel is ready. But you do have to pull the panel to do the install. E mail me for complete directions I include some things to check while you have the panel open. I have sold around 12 tachs on ebay. Only one was bad, which I replaced for free. just make sure you get a 4 cylinder tach. it will say 4Zyl. (all of them say 4Takl for 4cycle)
