I got my Bradley out of storage today, and notice the tack would run up to 60,000 RPM at 65 MPH. Also red-line when I shift. I know the engine was not running that fast. Any ideas on what to look for?

Loose connection? Switch on the back of the tack set incorrectly?
And as always....bad ground.

it was running fine when I put it away last fall. So the switch shouldn't be the problem. Bad ground and loose corroded wire will be checked tomorrow.

Do you have any sign of mice where you stored it? my dads Dragracing 72 Ford F-100 "Trans-FORD-Mobile" had a mouse chew some wires including tach after only two weeks of parking it after the season. The nickname was from the trans-am front suspention, ford body, and Olds 455 Rocket... it may sound like a cobbled combo, but talk about awesome.
Anyhoo, you may want to set some traps when you put it away for the season.

I put moth balls in the car last fall, and no sign of mice. The connections look good. Rather that break the spring with winding it beyond the stop, I disconnected one of the leads. I never paid much attention to the tach anyway. Maybe some one at Effingham might have ran into this problem before.
