Hi Everyone I've just joined the forum as I've just taken ownership of a 1990 16v. Few jobs need doing, but one of a weird ones is the rev counter with a mind of its own. I think the rev counter is driven by the coil, all the wiring looks OK (not checked behind the dash) but initially am planning on changing the coil, otherwise I guess its change the dial or dash PCB?

Needle put back on too tight, is my guess. Strip it out, remove, and replace with a dab of glue but minimal pressure and hope for no permanent damage. Mine's worse when main beam's selected, suggesting something electrical/witchcraft related. Good luck - nice car.
Thanks! ...interesting you say that yours does it worse with main beam...its also been mentioned to be that the voltage regulator is at fault?!
