The Speedhut stuff is nice and the customizations are even nicer. I chose to stay with Smiths although it's kind of funny that the Speedhut speedo might not look any more different from the original speedo than my Smiths electronic (GPS driven) speedo!

I would think that his problem is either the ECU or the tach conversion, either should be addressed by the vendor but I'll suggest a Speedhut tach to my buddy if he can't get his converted tach to work with his ECU.

Modern engine swaps involve a lot more modifications than I would have thought!

And then a buddy of mine who has a Zetec swap is having problems getting his tach to work with his ECU.

I used a Speedhut tach and speedo. I had them put "SMITHS" on them. Not factory but they work good with EFI and have adjustable shift lights and lighted needles. I changed all my gauges to LED bulbs so they match.

I have a similar problem. A guy that rebuilds our unique trans gave me the clue. He said that over the years people back into curbs and things and bend the shifter rod. That is what creates the leak from that back rod seal. He always checks that rod and trues it up or replaces it, but many people do not check it because it looks fine.

So after I replaced the seal with no resolve and he gave me this clue, I decided to park the Europa differently as an experiment. I always left it in 1st gear when parked and it leaked. I tried parking it in different gears and behold if I keep it in neutral - no leak! I guess it depends where the rod is bent.
