Title: Autometer Tach with a ECU? Post by: UltraOrange67-2443 on March 03, 2018, 22:46:26 pm Anyone running a standard ignition Autometer Tach with a ECU?
Did you need the 9117 Adapter? Cheers, Nick Title: Re: Autometer Tach with a ECU? Post by: spoolin70 on March 04, 2018, 10:15:42 am Hi Nick
My old engine used a MSD 6btm and distributor and when I changed over to DTA, I think the Autometer was just connected to the tacho ECU output. We certainly didn't use the adaptor you mention. My new engine will be using a Omex 710 and I plan to connect the same Autometer to the ECU output again - providing I can resist the urge to get a digital dash of course ;) Surely your ECU has an output connection for tachometer ?

Yes my Omex 600 has a tach output, just wanted to check with other people. Cheers, Nick Title: Re: Autometer Tach with a ECU? Post by: UltraOrange67-2443 on March 06, 2018, 22:02:04 pm Found out that Omex make a Tach driver for £18.
My mate has a LS V8 and is having trouble with his Autometer tach and he has found out they need to be set on 4 Cylinder setting to work. Title: Re: Autometer Tach with a ECU?

$104.95 :o Sounds like a might need a driver too then, thanks for the info Nick. I presume your using wasted spark or separate coils then ? Title: Re: Autometer Tach with a ECU? Post by: UltraOrange67-2443 on March 14, 2018, 22:16:13 pm I'm using wasted spark MSD Ford type coil pack.
