Re: Wire help

That's going to be a tough one, I think. Tachometers normally connect to the alternator at the rectifier leads. But with rope starting you don't have an alternator, do you? Unless I am uninformed (very likely) I don't know of a tachometer that will work on your rope start motors except the Tiny Tach.
