Re: merc tack replacment

Any brand is compatible where the "pulse" setting can be changed to match the number of alternator poles your engine uses. Teleflex, Faria, Etc. will work if it can be set to 6 pulse (for a 12 poles alternator). It will have a small dial on the back of the gauge for this..

As Rick said, most brands will work for you. Make sure the Tach is for an outboard, as I/B and I/O tachs can be different.
