Re: rev counter is not working
Normally goes to the coil negative terminal. I would give that a try.

Re: rev counter is not working now its gone up the swaney!!!
Well, it looks like it works the same way the one I've designed does. Takes the LT frequency as an input. As he said, it should work provided there's no gremlins in the system.
There's three ways of doing things:
The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

I think so. It takes it's input from the same place as mine, and mine works.

Re: rev counter is not working now its gone up the swaney!!!
That would probably depend on the one you've bought as to whether it need to go through the suppressor. Given your old one stopped working the suppressor is one of the things that could have broken though.
