This is the problem The tachometer may or may not work with a Petronix 
ignition. On my own car it works fine but on on of my friends one with 
exactly the same set up it does not. Why? No idea.

                    Hi Listers:<br>
                    <br>
                    The tach on  my BJ8 does not show the correct RPMs. 
                    On a cool morning it shows what I believe is fairly
                    close to the right numbers, but as the car warm, or
                    the day warms, it reads higher and higher for the
                    same speed.  I know it is not the clutch slipping.  
                    I saw some articles in Healey Marque magazine
                    showing how to rebuild and test them, but it
                    requires a oscilloscope and some other specialized
                    equipment I don't have, so I'm wondering if you guys
                    have a recommendation for someone that might rebuild
                    them.<br>
                    <br>
                    I imagine there is also some info in the archives,
                    but my antivirus software flags the archive site as
                    a malicious website and doesn't want to let me
                    access it.<br>
                    <br>
