Hi guys,
I have a 66 SS with the knee knocker tach and am not able to get it working. I have an assembly manual and it gives connections as follows : black/pink wire plugs into Ign. fused at fuse panel(12 v connection ?). Gray wire plugs into Lamps at fuse panel(tach lighting ?). Brown wire is coil lead and goes to negative terminal of coil. This car has a mallory unilite distributor and powermaster coil. Shouldn't there be a ground wire? Any help is greatly appreciated!

There is not a ground wire for the 66 tach.
