GAUGE PACK, Instrument Cluster: Description: Description: Tachometer

The standard equipment tachometer is located to the right of center in the instrument cluster, between the speedometer and the coolant temperature gauge. The tachometer consists of a movable gauge needle or pointer controlled by the instrument cluster circuitry and a fixed 185 degree scale on the gauge dial face that reads left-to-right either from 0  to 7  for vehicles with a gasoline engine, or from 0  to 5  for vehicles with a diesel engine. The text RPM X 1000  imprinted on the cluster overlay directly above the hub of the tachometer needle identifies that each number on the tachometer scale is to be multiplied by 1000 rpm.
