Kracker...I THINK yer gonna set that one on "6" for a 12 pole...some of the experts around here hopefully will confirm that...

Yep, you set it to 6P for a 12 pole stator. You have to divide the poles in halp to get the number of pulses per revolution.

yep as stated... 6p is 6 pulse/ 12 pole. ur golden.... that tach doesn't need a plug for the light. It connects to the stud next to the bulb holder in the pic.
