    Default tacho needle interference

    hey all in my trip to japan i found myself a defi tacho installed sweet now the problem i face is this when under heavy load at around 5000 rpm the needle starts to jump up and around 9000 rpm now i think this is interference with something now this is what i have thaught about

    -stock guage is still wired up interference from that?

    -coil playing silly

    -dizzy playing silly

    -aftermarket ecu givving funky readings or signal to coil

    now does anyone know of a line filter i can hook up to smooth out the interference

    thanks all
    mat

    I'm bit rusty with this but you could try 100ohm and 100nF ceramic cap and increase/decrease accordingly. Otherwise use a RC filter calculator for more accurate

    30-400Hz range is what you are working with for rpm.
