" From: "Armand Eshleman" <aje1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> " " [] " " The following message originated from Mr. John Elle about a year ago and was " addressed to me: " " Armand, " " The 1970 V8 tachometer is what is known as an inline tachometer. " " It has two wires and works as an ammeter. " " [] " " As an ammeter it measures the total current used by the coil to run the " engine. The faster the engine runs the more current is used in any given " interval of time. this means it's an indirect measurement of rpm and would read falsely on anything other than a stock coil. ________________________________________________________________________ Andrew Hay the genius nature internet rambler is to see what all have seen adh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and think what none thought _______________________________________________ Amc-list mailing list Amc-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx http://splatter.wps.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/amc-list
