Hey guys, am I missing something. I installed the instrument cluster on the weekend, but couldn't find or figure how to adjust the tach. The cluster came from a v-6 and my 4runner is 4cyl. Previous posts said there was a screw underneath the fascia that would allow me to recalibrate but I can't seem to find it. Any thoughts? The engine is screaming but only registars 2000 rmp. Quite a sight.

Maybe this will help. I can't see the pictures at work but this is the write up I looked at before I did my gauge install.

 

You don't have to take the tach face apart to get at it, just remove the speedo head and use a phillips head from the side. See:

 

Excellent!!! I'll dig into her again on the weekend.

 

Just curious,what year is yours? what year is is the replacment,mine is cable and was wondering if adjustment would be the same

 

He's adjusting the tachometer (adjusting a V6 cluster to a 4cyl I assume), not the speedometer - the only cable driven tachs I've ever seen are on old motorcycles

 

ya I was wondering if the tach on cable driven clusters are adjusted the same way as eletronically driven clusters

 

Cable driven tach? my bike is an 83 and even it has the electric tach already.

 

I've never seen a cable driven tach either,the speedo on my cluster is cable drive,just asking about adjustment on the tach,thanks

 

'79 Suzuki GS850 - you can see the tach cable coming out the top of the cylinder head


*thread-jack over*

 

my 80 honda cx 500 has a cable tach
