Thaks for the link. 
 
The above link do not show any details about wiring 
connection. 
 
I have decided to progress with a separate hourmeter and 
leave the original tachometer only for the RPM display. 
 
The reason is because of the uncertainty of hourmeter 
connection. The VDO is connected to the motor with two wires 
that carry the RPM pulse. It is my believe that RPM pulses 
are internally analyzed to originate the "motor running" 
information to the original hourmeter. 
 
I'm progressing with a mechanical 12V hourmeter and a small 
12V relay connected to the alternator output.
