Tach
The tachometer isn't working. Removing the cable at the tach and starting the engine, the cable wasn't turning and I couldn't get any sense of mechanical engagement by pushing and jiggling the exposed cable end either. I pulled the cable out and it has a normal square end with a finished tip.
I think it's driving off the camshaft. It looks like it wouldn't be a big deal to pull it apart. Before I do, though, I'm wondering if there's anything else I should check or likely causes.
