had same problem for years, replaced tachs with no long term success. Mechaninc replaced engine starter toggle due to an unrelated probelm and have not had a problem with the tach synch since.
My sync problems returned. When it's working it's perfect. But it's intermittant so I think it's time to break some connections, cut the wires back and reconnect. I think it's that simple.
Dan the tach problems that you are experiencing are probably something else. I experienced the same issue with both tach needles dancing around when we purchased the boat. My fix - I bought 2 new SR tachs. Sorry, I know that you didn't want to hear that, but it seems to be a common problem with the tachs themselves. I have a friend who opened one of his tachs and fixed it with lubrication, but that fix is unlikely in my opinion. Check back 6-12 months ago for another thread on tachs - I know Dominic replaced both his with digital ones and he was very happy. You might want to explore that.
Good luck!
