 I figure there must be a ground issue here somewhere...when I hit the brakes, the tach stops working (drops to zero). When I use the blinkers, it intermittently stops working with each blink, so it bounces madly...

BUT

This only happens when the car is cold. After running awhile, these symptoms slowly bleed away so that after about 20 minutes, the blinkers have no effect and the brakes have a tiny effect on the tach reading!!

I have completely redone all the wiring for the rear lights - soldered grounds and the like - so I suspect there is a connection issue with the tach...and as the car came to me completely disassembled in that area, it is certainly possible. Any ideas jump to mind out there?
