Aftermarket Tachometer

Ok folks.. I got the tach and I need it in lol.. My truck is a 2000 F150 4.2L V6 5 Speed.. I'm going with simple installation so dont say anything about tearing my dash apart lol.. Unless you know for sure that a tach connector is in the dash.. Otherwise how do I hook the hotwire up to the DIS? Where is it located etc.. Much help would be appreciated..

Take a look at https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/s...ighlight=tach+
I believe that on your truck you need the tach adapter that I mentioned in that post.
Ken (webmaster) was going to start selling them through Motorhaven which is the parts store that helps keep this site open. You might want to send him a message on here and ask him about it.
