More to the story............I went out last night to check everything and found my battery was dead. Tried to charge it, but it wouldn't take a charge at all. So, went and got a new battery, and the car fired right up, but the tach was barely moving. So I tried to shut it off, and of course, the motor kills with the key!! WTH? Fired it back up and now the tach is working perfectly again. Oh, and when I hooked the new battery up I got a small spark from the positive post indicating a short somewhere, but after the tach started working again, I disconnected the battery and no more spark at the positive post, so whatever the draw is it affects the tach when its acting up. Could this all still be the solenoid? My solenoid is new. Cant remember the brand, but I want to say its not Chinese.
