Then, you are gonna need to get someone who knows about electrical wiring
on cars to do this for you. The circuit above shows a connection to the negative
side of each coil primary. There is a diode in each connection and after they
join together, a zenner diode that just lets the flyback voltage spike from each
coil pass thru. The voltage spike is what drives the tacho.
The coil packs are the black things at the back of the engine on the far end of
the red wires. Each coil pack has a small green 2-pin plug on the end under the
red wires, and a black clip with two wires that pushes onto the green plug. The
wires from one clip should be tan and black, and from the other tan and green.
The tan wires get 12V when the key is ON, and the green and black run to the
igniter which grounds them alternately to fire the coils.
I am gonna assume that you have the factory GZE igniter and ECU, so one of the
coil negative wires (black or green) should already be tapped off and connected
to the tacho to get it to run at half revs. What needs to happen is a tapping
from the other coil negative wire, then add the diodes and splice into the
existing tacho wire. Sounds complicated but it will be a piece of cake to an
auto electrician or anyone who has a bit of experience with wiring cars.
