Porsche gauges

Post by Zappally »

Alrighty, I now have a 924 tacho & speedo (need a new engine to reach the indicated 160 mph! ) & a 911 oil temp/pressure gauge.

The speedo & tach are the same large size as opposed to the speedo being smaller. That's no biggy though.

My question is, for the Tacho, when I goto wire it up on the rear there's the 2 bulbs, these I can do then there's a block with Hg & H+, i take these are the ground & 12v connections & then there's 4 more connections marked, 2,4,5 & 6. So how do I go about connecting it???

Do I wire 12v to the H+ & ground to the Hg & then a cable from the coil to the terminal marked 4?

I'm thinking I'll run with the stock speedo for the moment & use the 911 oil temp/pressure gauge & mount the 924 tach under the centre of the dash in a pod for the moment till I either change the colour of the speedo dial (currenly green) or source a 914 speedo

Cheers
