NO problem! If connecting the blu/blk wire to the coil negative side causes the engine to stall, backfire and stop; then something must be shorting out INSIDE of the tach, OR the wire (blu/blk) may be chaffing to ground (shorted) somewhere along the way. You might check this with a VOM, or continuity checker from THAT wire, (when disconnected, or connected ONLY to the tach), and to ground. All the best, Marlin. P.S.: There could also be the possibility that the coil is bad! You may try substituting another coil to test.
