Tach reading incorrectly.

[mwolfey_ky]

The tach on my '83 Evinrude 115 hp doesn't read correctly. I will read either 3000 or 6000 at WOT. Judging by ear neither of these is correct. Is there anything I can check or is this a replacement situation?

Re: Tach reading incorrectly.

Your engine needs a tach with a 6P setting. Here is a link to a Teleflex Trouble Shooting page that should help you:
