My tachometer pegs all the way right when the engine is running, are there any checks I can do to fox it? Is it completely shot and I have to replace the whole instermemt culster? Any advice?
Thanks!

This may be a stupid question but my 1990 4.0, manual tranny, yes it's a RENIX (sorry), will only briefly run if I dump the codes, then won't start @ all. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
