    I just bought an instrument cluster on ebay, Tach, etc. all allegedly
    work. However, my '86 240 DL has a clock located where the tach is in
    the new cluster. There is a three pin connector on the back of the
    tach, but no three pin plug on my wiring harness. Plus I have an orphan
    red/yellow wire in the harness that supposedly connects to the tach. My
    questions are:
    1) How does one wire the tach?
    2) If and when I get a new (smaller) clock, how do I wire it?
    3) What is the red/white wire in the wiring harness which I assume goes
    to the pin at the lower left (rear view) of the cluster? and last
    4) Does anyone have an understandable wiring diagram for an '86 240? I
    have a Chilton manual and frankly, the wiring schematic looks like
    something I would have drawn in college electronics class - useless!
    Thanks, Carter
