bob 442 showed up with this doohickey at dinner this evening.
It's made by Dakota Digital and it uses a bosch pickup magnet and their own translator box. In short, this will allow you to hook up a gasser tach to your diesel.
I'll let the pics to the talking.
Now I have to find a Snap-On Modus(sp) and compare the waveforms between the bosch pickup and the Ford pickup
a little history about Dakota Digital....
Years ago when Buick GN's were really hot, DD had a electro luminescent display that dropped in where the sucky stocker dash went. Good idea but really bad on reliability and when they burned out, it cost major $$$$ to repair.
They've gotten better over the years and from what I understand, this product is pretty bulletproof. I haven't considered them for a long time due to their notorious past, but this is worth a closer look.
