Hi ... Installed remote stater and used the tach wire at the coil, car will start sometimes and other times it don't catch. Manual says too strong of a signal will do that and low signal will over crank. Anyone know of a better Tach wire, like what colour at the injectors or the best possiable place. Thanks Ron.

The absolute best tach is in a 16 pin connector on the firewall on the passenger side below the air conditioning fill nipple. It is going to be a BLACK/ White wire.
