Connect tachometer for Oldsmobile Dynamic 88 1966

Please I need help, I joined the original tachometer, originally from Starfire model of the console, but the needle always stops at 3000 rpm. Connected to the coil is correct? Thanks

Here's some pics from the 1967 Chassis Service Manual.

if there is a problem in that the tachometer may be removed from six-cylinder engine. Can this be adjusted somehow?

The tach from the 66 to 67 is different. This is from the service manual for 1966.

If it came from a 6 cylinder engine, I couldn't find any provisions for adjustments in the manual.

My wife's tach stops at 2800 but that is because the guy that replaced the clock, got the clock in a little crooked (clock in middle of tach 1968) and the needle jams and I have to bump the dash gently to get it to release so maybe your needle is bent
