I'm going to be 914-less for alot longer than that! Better get a radiator for your truck first though!

I'll buy your yellow one for what you paid, even though it's broken now... What a deal! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)

Why can't he just use the radiator from the yellow car to fix the truck?

My car had the same symptoms.
Sure enough - when it would momentarily short out it would cause the tach to
go crazy & the engine to backfire and even quit. I traced it to the wire from the tach to the coil. I spliced in a new wire and soldered the terminal end.
Problem B gone. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beer.gif)
30year old wires = brittle wire insulation = PITA.
