Tacho unit from AX / 405 / 205 / 309

Hi,

I need to sort my tacho out on my Citroen AX and I need a donor unit but from a PSA car which had carbs and / or a dizzy. Apparently a fuel injection car tacho wont work with my carb engined car. So any AX tacho pre 1990 I think and same era Peugeot 405 (sri ect) and some 205s (XS) and 309s. Seen some 405 ones on ebay but not 100% if they are from MPI engine cars or not.  eg: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tacho-Tachometer-Cluster-Cockpit-Kombiinstrument-Peugeot-405-BENZIN-BENZINER-DZM-/272681884154?hash=item3f7d1b59fa:g:JGAAAOSwCQZZIsCD

Cheers, Tim

whats wrong with the unit on the car?

Its intermittently working ie, going all over the place! Its a MK2 dash on a MK1 car hence the problem.. Was told I need a unit off a carb car to work

[welshpug]

intermittent sounds like a wiring fault, so I'd be checking the wiring on the coil.

if when it works its fine, then its not the later unit at fault.
