No Analog Dial Tach? No Problem!

If that device shows the actual oil pressure it would be worth its weight in gold

An old thread but I would like to revisit!

Do I need an analog tach? No.

Do I want an analog tach? Yes!

What did you tap into to get a reading? Does the dashboard tach still operate?

Anymore photos/video with it in action?!

Thanks.

Here's a blurry vid of the tach. It's paired with a cheap Amazon Bluetooth dongle in the OBDII port. The app will run many more systems. You have to set up screens the way you want them.

Thanks so much. The video is great! I appreciate the effort.

I get how it works now. My brain was stuck in the days when a "square" cable was fed from the engine block to the actual tach. (Hence the analog part .) I guess electronics have taken over again!

It has been so long since we could even buy a manual transmission vehicle, and now I realize that I miss an analog tach.

I would also prefer a stand-alone tach instead of using my phone. I guess it would need to be a Bluetooth enabled tach.

Does anyone have a link or recommendation?

Thanks.
