RE: [DML] Tachometer Flicker

["DMC Joe" <dmcjoe@xxxxxxx>]

Good job checking the items I suggested. I believe from your description the
problem is due to a "No ground" condition at the front frame extension. This
is the ground connection that is closest to the tach. 

You said: "I see NO ground wires in the vicinity of the RH or LH horns..."

I suspect that sometime in the past the ground wiring harness in question
was disconnected and not replaced. Look around the area of the LH front
frame extension for this harness, it will be in the area of the windshield
washer reservoir.

OK, I checked and cleaned fuse #1. I have a new rotor, cap, wire and plugs.

I checked to see if the flickering was affected by loading and it doesn't
change with lights, A/C, fans and or defroster.

I tightened the main frame ground by the RH trailing arm bracket.

I tightned the auxilary ground on the RR frame member.

I see NO ground wires in the vacinity of the RH or LH horns...where are the
wires that are supposed to be grounded by the LH horn bracket supposed to be
coming from?

No joy still flickering.

Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
