can you and how do you rebuild a tachometer? anybody know someone in phoenix?
 
A mechanical tach is very similar to a speedometer. Anthony Rhodes wrote a 27 page PDF that outlines how to work on speedometers. You can use it to work you your mechanical tach.

If it is an electronic tach, they can also be worked on. There are several web sites that discuss the common component failures and what modern components to use in their place.
 
Also lots of places that will rebuild yours by mail order. Eg,

Sorry I don't know of any in Phoenix.
 
We're getting closer, but still no one in Phoenix.

I've had excellent luck with:
Foreign Speedo, Inc
2246 1/2 University Ave.
San Diego, CA 92104
Talk to Bob or Preston at
619-298-5278

They do mail order & are very reasonable.
