    What do you need another tach for? Are you 5spd? Are 2 tachs better then one?

    if it's autometer there should be instructions up the ass. the green wire (looking at autometer instructions) is for the tach pulse signal, the 4th wire, i dont know. what do you need two tachs for?

    I can only assume the green is for tach sensor. it's probably gonna be found on the ECU pull up the diagram for the S-AFC and find the pun for your model tach sensor

    again pull up the diagram of your ECU and find the tach sensor unit and that's where the green wire goes

    HHAHAHA, now thats comedy...but why do you need a second one for, answer the question already. I mean i gotta manual tranny, 8ggalant is running a manual, and were just using the stock one. Whats the point of the autometer, cant you see the stock one? you prolly just like the big light on it..
