TractorActor 3 #3 Posted September 21, 2019 An idea you might think about. $38 and it can be used for other equipment. I like mine. https://www.harborfreight.com/digital-photo-sensor-tachometer-66632.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BOB ELLISON 2,981 #5 Posted September 21, 2019 I use the same handheld tach that@TractorActor uses but I wanted a permanent tach on my C160. I did get one that works very good to this day.

Goldnboy 1,032 #6 Posted September 21, 2019 Thanks for the link Bob I have read this and its quite informative. May do this when I the K321 is done again and working. Has anyone tried the contact ones with a small wheel at one end for setting the RPM limits? They appear easier than the reflective tape ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
