I just installed a dragin tach in my 77. and Im getting a weird reading!!! at idle it just sits at about 800 or so. no movement. though I know the motor is lobing. but if I tough the gas  it seems to come to life. I looked at all of my connections and  even ran a wire straight to my coil. Im getting the same results. anybody have any suggestions??Thanks in advance

My 302 is lopey, but the idle speed (signals sent by the MSD box) is constant.
