Re: Tacho removal from dash
I'm really not sure if the new Mariah mounted theirs the same way as the original Mariahs but....i would take a couple of good digital photos of the back of your dash (thru the access) to record where all of the wiring goes to before i start to remove anything. There is likely a mounting bracket with a couple of nuts on the backside holding the gauge in place. Once they are removed the tach should push straight out.
Was the tach broken / not working? Faria has a lifetime warranty on their products but first i would check the connections to be sure its not just a bit of corrosion causing problems. I would also give the small dial on the back of the tach a spin or three and re-set it at "8 cyl" then see if it works.
