Hi All,
Hoping someone can help - the 68 +4 (4 seater) tacho cable - is it a morgan specific product or is it a TR4 product? Caught in a non deliery situation and need to find an alternate solution? Many thanks for everyones contributions!

This might be a start - you don't say where you are.
Good luck.

The tacho cable fits into the gearbox and routes under the drivers seat and is a Morgan specific

Terry Foxen at GEE has them on the shelf.

Believe it or not the speedo and tacho cables are the same length and are interchangeable

I know...I just fitted one of his last night to my 1968 Plus 4 4 seater!

Make sure you lubricate it with powdered graphite before fitting and keep the cable bends as gentle as possible and you'll be fine

It may matter whether your Morgan is LHD or RHD, since the gauges are switched. I have a 1961 +4 four-seat and a TR4, both are LHD. The LHD TR4 cable looks too short for the Morgan, but a RHD TR4 cable might be longer. Since the Morgan and TR4 tach gauges are interchangeable, a RHD TR4 cable should work on a LHD Morgan +4 if it is long enough.

Interchangable but there are subtle differences between the two guages!
