Someone did that to my 66B, I think it was when they swapped the generator
to an alternator. now I don't really know how it's done, but the only
problem now is the original tach will not work at all, and I have tried.
if anyone out there knows how to fix this please let me know ( and yes I did
try swapping the wires at the coil)
