I need a Tachometer

[gsxrbrad78]

So, I'm trying to find a Tach for my 5 hp Briggs and don't seem to be having any luck. Can anyone point me in the right direction or give me some advise as to what they've done to solve this problem?

I tried the obvious ones like google and what not but, it's hard to find anything that'll work with a Magneto Ignition system. Like the one that's on my Briggs....I'm currently talking to Sunpro to see what they can come up with. I'm hoping they'll have an analog tach that I can use.....

I have the chinese version of the tiny tach on my kart, thing works great and the price was like $20

So the Sunpro thing didn't work out. Their tech guy was pretty impersonal and wasn't much help. :censure:

Any luck on a link to the Chinese knock off?

One of many, this is pretty much the exact same thing I have Tachometer Hour Meter atv dirt bike motocross jet ski - eBay (item 180486837526 end time Dec-22-10 13:06:18 PST)

Search by hour meter tachometer and you will find them, just be warned that if you order one of the ones shipping from china (which are usually cheapest) you wont see it for about a month or possibly more

Here's a link to the SenDec site but, they're kinda pricey....

I'm thinking the Tiny Tach is the way to go... They're half the price....
