Rev counter is fed by a signal from the dizzy I think. Does VTEC still kick in properly when the rev counter is going crazy? If yes, that points at the dial itself.

Page 23-166 of the 4G service manul has the troubleshooting guide for the clocks. I'd have a go at that.

I had something like that on mine, the rev counter bounced and when you boot it the rev counter went off the scope. Changed the dials for a replacement set and everything now works. Might not be the same but worked for me.
