Been many years since I put in a Pertronix, but I seem to recall adding an
'extra' loop on the inductive pickup.

Hi Bob,
I ran into this when I first installed my Pertronix on my positive ground BJ8.
I found that the Pertronix doesn't draw as much current as points and
therefore does not create enough of a magnetic field with only one loop on the
back of the tach. I ended up splicing in some thin wire so I could make 3 or
4 loops where there would normally only be one and that made the tach very
responsive and accurate.
You might try this.
Cheers,
Chris
