I'm guessing this is on the '89... There's a way to do it and I know it's been done but not sure how... there's posts over the years of a few people getting it to work.
Myself I just got a factory tach cluster from a '89-91 ('92 was a split year for dash wiring, I don't remember the color of the circuit boards you need...) and dropped my stock speedo/odo in there and it's worked fine for the last ~23 years...

So is the 3 wires to a coil pack? IF so I'm not sure any of those wires would be right for a tach. Don't they expect to see every spark event?
Diagram for 89 2.3 on Charm.Li shows a Black/Yellow or Dark Green/Yellow at the instrument cluster for a tach.
