My 69 cougar tach was reading around 750 RPM at idle, now it is showing only around 250 RPM at idle, has the tach gone bad ?
If you changed nothing else then yes it is.
Thanks so much Royce, I have another question. The rubber fender to hood bumpers, I can’t get them to fit in the hole, I even used lubricant ??
I’m asking you because “Your The Man”
Thank you!!
I have used a flat screw driver to get the in the hole.

Leave them in the sun for a while to soften them up. A soapy water lubricant and a plastic door panel tool from Harbor Freight is what I used on mine.

I will try that, Thanks so much
The hood bumpers I sand half the rubber “tit” away first. Then I lube them with Vaseline. I made a tool for this where I bent an old screwdriver 90 degrees to push the rubber in place.

If you can, try to get to them from underneather so you can wiggle the “tit” and squirm them down in. I think I tied some twine around mine and then fed that into the hole so that I could pull them down while I wiggled them. Still wasn’t easy.
Thank you !!
Cool, Thanks
