I fitted an Mallory electronic ignition distributor to my R1 replica engine, and lost the (standard) tacho. Solution - remove pink wire, substitute normal wire, and use ballast resistor on coil. Tacho works fine now, with standard sender unit.

Used the diagram and instructions from the link to bobs site and tach works now. Thanks for all the info. I did make a test run in the hawk tonight but it stalled a lot and didn't seem to run as it should. It's ether timing or carb issue but
it's late and tomorrow is another day. Was hoping to drive it my high school class reunion tomorrow night so I might get it sorted out before time to go.
