ok, i did the KLDE swap on my car, everything is great, besides a tiny CEL issue... but other then that i am completely satisfied. However one day i decided to hook my tach up (due to time constraints in getting the car done i never did so)... after hooking it up it did exactly what i expected, read it as a 4 cylinder ignition. So i was just doing the simple conversion factor of .6666 (4/6) to achieve the actual RPM. Upon getting my dad's MACtools Multi-tester that reads RPM, i hooked it up to my car and tore the dash apart, knowing there is an adjuster to tune the tach.
after getting the tach out i realized there isn't a whole lot of adjustment, and it did not adjust far enough to fix the issue. I was wondering if anyone knew what resister needs to be replaced on the back of the tach board to allow it to read the 6 cylinder effectively. I have attached some photos to look at and will later make up a jpeg that maps out the locations of each, due to the pictures not revealing the numbers clearly... thank you in advance
BTW, this is in an escort/tracer... just so there isn't any confusion

The Brown color spots are resistors while the blue are capacitors
Numbers from top left to bottom right with R or C designating color:
R12
R4
C2
R7
R2
R10
R5
R6
R1
C4
C3
R9
