We should really get the terminology correct here to avoid confusion.
The device that is bolted to the right side of the front engine cover is called a service meter. I have a WW2 TD-14 that has one. I also have a propane W400 that is also fitted with the service meter and a tachometer. The gas and diesel meters are not interchangeable. They turn in opposite directions.
Hour meters were electrically driven and mounted on the light bracket on the steering post. They were suspended on a rubber diaphram to lessen vibration damage. They had a clock face and needle. The hour meter kit came with an oil pressure activated electrical switch that closed when the engine was running.
Not sure what the odometer in a tachometer is called. Probably hour meter. I assume that tachs made the electrical hour meter obsolete.
