Tachometer fix

[George Lowry]

If you have instrument problems, I suggest that you go to a
speedometer shop or instrument shop. They are the experts and have
the proper equipment and training to quickly diagnose the problem and
repair them. I have found their prices to be less than a general
repair shop who has to go to the instrument shop for the parts and
sometimes the expertise, then add a markup. FWIW.
