You're connecting it right I hope. When I first put my AMX together I got it 
wrong. The mistake I made was not reconnecting the yellow coil line to the 
starter solenoid like the '70 TSM shows. If you leave the ignition feed on 
the ignition coil the tach gets bypassed. The blue wire to the "+"
 side of the tach goes to the "I" connection on the solenoid as does the 
yellow ignition feed in the main harness (that used to go to the "+" side of 
the ignition coil). The yellow wire to the "-" side of the tach goes to the 
"+" side of the ignition coil. Also the pink/yellow wire that normally 
connects to the starter solenoid gets disconnected.
