if you buy an aftermarket tach it should tell you which wire in the directions.

go here. this is what we had to do for an 2001 ford F-150 4.2 V6.

pin 48 is the key, when you look at the PCM harness there is no wire going into pin 48 so you have to go to radio shack and buy a computer D9 connector and add a pin sleave to the harness inorder to use pin 48.

if you have any questions email me. this i know works for the 2001? ive heard of others using the pink and white? but for us that was WRONG! RPMS were OFF!
