    Subject: tachometer
    I've got a Van's tachometer that was in the partially completed project I b ought.=C2- Has anyone used one of these by tying the sensor wire to the n egative side of the coil?

    As best I can tell, the tachometer used by Van's Aircraft and also sold by Aircraft Spruce is a Isspro model, and uses a sender that produces 8 pulses per revolution.=C2- Fairly certain that our coils will be producing 3 pu lses per revolution.=C2- This is rather disheartening, because now I have to find a tach that will fit a standard 2.25" instrument hole and bolt pat tern.

    Ernest, I first used an E1 from MGL avionics. It worked well with a few wraps about the high tension lead to provide the tach input. I have this unit sitting on a shelf collecting dust if you're interested, as I've replaced it with another engine monitor package. Want it? Make a ridiculous offer.
