Should the tach work the same on each motor or can I chalk it up to interference on the Tohatsu from the other plug wire. I think I read somewhere on this site that the tohatsu...

    Unregulated Charging System

    Bought a new-to-me 1994 Evinrude 88 SPL last year and have been flustered with the erratic tach and voltmeter situation.
