[Public-List] Electronic tachometer

[Gordon Laco via Public-List]

Thanks Dan…

“…was a much bigger job than it looked like…”  oh dear, that is exactly what I was afraid of.

Well, I think I’m going to give it a go.

    Gord,
    
    It is easy to install an electronic tach, you just wire it to 12V side 
    of the coil, and set the switches on the back of the tach for the number 
    of cylinders. If you have the original panel, the physical installation 
    might be difficult. Alternatively, if your alternator has an appropriate 
    sine wave output, you could use a diesel tach, but that is less likely.
    
    I upgraded my whole panel about 7 years ago, which was a much bigger 
    project than it looked like, including re-plumbing for new sensors and 
    the need to re-route major power wiring, since all the circuits had been 
    tied to the ammeter directly. But what a joy to have a fully functional 
    panel...
