Troy,

Welcome to the forum.

I can't believe that with owning over 20 1st gens that you have not encountered this problem before. :-)


The most common problem that occurs is that the fuse (meter one) in the fuse block blows. Yes, it is that simple. :-)

Second and very uncommon is that the circuitry in the instrument cluster is bad which means a new instrument cluster.

On the tachometer issue. Since yours is a 85 model I would have to say that you may have a loose connection in the wiring to the tachometer and not a trailing ignitor problem or the tachometer is starting to fail.

 

Bring it by and we can take a look at it. I think you have my number. if not, shoot me a pm or get it from Dana.
