I'm trying to buy a small hand held Tacho like the "Tiny Tacho" to ensure my five 4Stroke mowers are at the upper end of their rev range.
Picked up me new Victa 560 the other day and found today it was running just under 3000 RPM which is tooo slow.
It's a pain to go back to the dealer and ask for a check and quick adjust.
So I need to invest in this device ASAP.
Jaycar only have self assemble kits, so they can shove that.
I have not been to Hella auto shops yet, Alltools thought they could get one as they sell petrol engined machines. But no they could not source one. Dick Smith Super Stores don't have them.
My Mower dealer has a mini palm held tacho that needs no connection to the spark plug. He just holds it close to the front of mower and it reads the RPM (smick gadget).
I will surf the net tomorrow night, but some of the more seasoned blokes or gals here may be able to direct me on the right path sooner.
Having honda mowers at say 3300,3400 or just under 3500-ish RPM is better than having them lower for our use. Realising 3600 is the max recommended.
Thanks,
