What do you have to do to use a standard coil for tach signal for fuel only Microsquirt?

Connect it to the coil.

By "standard Tach", do you men a tach that is driven by coil voltage or by a 12vdc square wave signal? What are you using to give the microsquirt an rpm signal, connect tach to that.

Did not probably word it properly.How do you use the coil to generate a signal for fuel injection only on Microsquirt?

There are several answers here, maybe one of them will work.

I know this is an old thread, but thought I would provide an answer... You can use a coil to generate a tach signal for fuel only by triggering off the coil negative.
