Hi All,
I've got an 1850 w/o functioning tachourmeter. So far the cable is bad, but, I can't figure out what the other part is.
- Below the injection pump there is a right angle gear drive that slips over a gear that is protruding, and then the tach cable screws onto that. What is that right angle part? It spins freely when removed, but, the gear drive doesn't engage it. Teeth on the gear that is poking out are fine and spin when the engine is running; I'm assuming the teeth on the internal right angle thing are not so good and I need that part. I'm having trouble identifying it in the parts book.
Some googling indicates that this is a common fail with that internal drive being stripped out..and they are either hard to get or expensive or both. Can someone enlighten me?
Thanks,
J
