Have a 185 tach that needs repair. Tach is ok but hour meter does not work. Looking for your favorite recommendation. Thanks...Dale

I have had some luck repairing them depending on what is wrong inside them.

Good info I may need that kind of service. What is going on if the tach needle is jumpy all the time and sometimes even stuck at 0 rpm during cold weather.

How hard is it to take apart? Actually what I want to know is how do you get the stainless ring off that hold on the glass? After that it should be straightfoward. Maybe.

Brian, Check the fiber drive gear on the back of the alternator, it may be loosing its teeth.

Don, kinda off topic, but do you think the company you listed could fix an All-Crop cylinder tach?
