Default Rev counter in cossie converted Escort
The rev counter in my Mk4 escort does not work. Has a YB fitted and MT75 box. I'm guessing it's a wiring incompatibility issue. Does anyone know what needs to be done to get it to work?

The gauge itself will be wrong, Cosworth gauges are different to lesser models.

Are you using a pulse to drive the counter or from an aftermarket ECU?
