Nope, I don't need it - I haven't got a 3dr. But it makes a friend's cossied capri rev counter work with wasted spark, so for the cost of the bits, give it a go.

Hi, I'm not quite sure how to wire this this up ....

I run a 2wd Sapp, and have just changed to wasted spark, and the rev counter is not correct now. I cant use the rev counter/tacho. instruction witch followed the kit as my rev counter is different......







so please....HEEELP...
