Wayward rev counter.
Wayward rev counter.
The Rev counter on my 78 350/500 previously reliable, has today started to flip right round to 10,000 rpm once it's gets past (a genuine) 6,000. The engine is raving normally, just the rev counter acting strangely. It seems normal and accurate below 6,000. Any ideas gents? Thanks.
Re: Wayward rev counter.
Mine did that cleaning all the connections especially the earth's fixed it.

Cheers Ralph, I'll try that this weekend.
Re: Wayward rev counter.
Also try it on the other transducer but it's often as Ralph said, contacts.

I have a motobat to go in as well so I'll check and clean all the earth's as suggested. Thanks.
Re: Wayward rev counter.
Cleaning Connectors and the earth's did the trick. Thanks gents.

Ta for letting us know how you went on,
when mine did it I at first thought it was
the clutch slipping.

Luckily I wear a pisspot helmet so could tell it wasn't the clutch slipping. So reliant on the rev-counter as the speedo is more like a windscreen wiper. Cheers.
