Points

Point the tach at any florescent or incandescent light. The analog meter should be right on "36" (for 3600rpm). These house lights flash with the alternating current which is 60 per SECOND. Tachometers are reading how many pulses in 1 MINUTE (Revs Per Minute) which would then be 60 light flashes x 60 seconds = 3600! Perfect calibration!

What should be my pressure on a Delfield 404A refrigerator

As a general rule of thumb, pressure on low side should equal a temperature of about 17-18 degrees if the box is not hot and a high side of ambient plus 30. Again, this is a general rule of thumb that usually gets you close enough to get a unit working providing all other things are right.

97 town and country LXI mini van speedometer and tach not working

the cluster needs to be calibrated to the pcm before the speedo and tach will work. You will have to take it to the dealer to have it done. The last time I had to do it, it cost me 70 dollars.
