My Facet fuel pump interfered with the tacho. Made it run about 500 rpm high from memory. This was apparent when the engine wasn't running.  Can't remember what was causing it or how it was wired up. I probably wrote about it here, about 100 years ago. |

Assuming the inductive loop is properly setup then the electronics inside have degraded just through old age - see SEARCH as to how to rectify/renew them.
Mk1/2 Tacho's are Positive earth so will not work and Mk3 will have a different calibration for a 6 cylinder but is Negative earth
