the ballast reister wires are not used , the MSd powers the coil tach feed is off the MSD box not the coil

should the wires be spliced together or just taped off,what do you think is causing the tach to jump, its fine with the car running and lights on but once you add anything else like heat or wipers it starts jumping thanks
