(cant quit figure out how to upload pictures)

What series of OMC gauges do you have? http://www.whalercentral.com/articles...icle_id=43 Here is an article on adding an OMC System Check Tach to the older engines. http://www.whalercentral.com/articles...icle_id=72

You can replace them by calling your Evinrude dealer or looking at other outside sources. You don't need to upgrade to the System Check Tach with idiot lights if you don't want to. They still sell the other Tech Series tach without the idiot lights.
