I have a 92 MTX SHO I bought last week. CEL light was on then, but I could not remember how to check them (yes, my bad) and the PO stated that the light was because the O2 sensors were bad.

Ran the codes today and I must not be counting correctly....this getting old stuff sux.....

Here is a youtube clip of the trouble codes..... could someone else please confirm the codes for me?

I got 212 217 542

Bad DIS would be my first guess. If you have an extra, try changing it out.

Does the tach work? Is it accurate, or does it appear to be reading lower than actual?

Tach seems to work just fine, not sluggish or "twitchy". Seems to be accurate too.
