Is there some sort of tach drive in the head that can be replaced? I am assuming, where the tach cables goes into the head there is a something worn out.
Thanks so much.

There are some other forum topics about this same thing happening.
Was the tach New manufactured? Or just a new one to you? As bought used or whatever?
