Neg Coil Tach Trigger Wire?????

Hey everybody, one wire away from completing an install of a remote starter on my girlfriends 2000 mustang, 3.8L. Anyone know which wire I should use for the neg coil/tach trigger wire? It has the distributerless ignition and i haven't a clue which wire feeds the tach, could it possibly be a crank sensor or other? please help.

I looked up some info on the web as if I was going to hook up a regular tach. They use an adapter and hook to a white wire with a blue strip coming out of a 42 pin connector under the hood, near the passenger side firewall. I suggest you get on the web or call the people who make your brand remote starter and see what they say about it.
