tach

Is the sensor that controls the tach located next to the oil fill neck? If so what do the parts houses list it under? Can't find it on Napa's site.

I went to my local Ford Stealership last year and the parts house "lazy hound-dog" convinced me the tach sensor that screws into the housing was no longer available! That rat! I would much rather have that sensor since I know my tach gauge works.

I think I will try to order one with the part number listed.

Thanks
