PLEASE some one tell me where to hook this, i have a ICM not and ECM i cant find no pink wire buried any where. please if you know exactly what i need to do please i would deeply appreciate this, its driving me nuts...Ive ...hooked it to the wires on my coil from the ICM and the numbers were to low to be running as a tach never exceeded 1700.

Does the gauge come with instructions? What does it say you should hook the green lead to?

Of the numerous aftermarket gauges out there, if you want us to help you, maybe you could tell us which gauge you have???
