RE: sticking tack on GTV-6

["Hartman, Jeffery C" <jeffery.c.hartman@domain.elided>]

	I had the same problem on my GTV-6, I removed and cleaned the
contacts on the pc board sticking out of the tach module and on the
connector. The problem went away and a few months later cropped up again.
The tack needle is plastic and the needle had melted? such that the tip was
rubbing against the face of the gauge.  I bent it back a little and problem
solved.
