    Tach Question

    I'm replacing the Tach on a 1991 Johnson 200hp. I have a good OMC Tach off another boat but instead of having a switch to move from 4, 6, and 8 cylinders, It has 3 brass screws with the cylinder #s above each screw. What connects to the screw? Jumper wire ?? from the pulse?? Any help appreciated.
