Tach
The tachometer isn't working. Removing the cable at the tach and starting the engine, the cable wasn't turning and I couldn't get any sense of mechanical engagement by pushing and jiggling the exposed cable end either. I pulled the cable out and it has a normal square end with a finished tip.
I think it's driving off the camshaft. It looks like it wouldn't be a big deal to pull it apart. Before I do, though, I'm wondering if there's anything else I should check or likely causes. I'm considering damaged drive connector or previous cable remnant. Is a damaged drive difficult or expensive to fix?
Before putting the control console back together. I think I should lubricate and test the tach, but haven't found a procedure or know which lubricant to use.
Work Light Cable
This wire is exposed and vulnerable looking. I found a tractor restoration article where it was covered with a tough look dark sheathing. Does anyone know where I can find this material?
I untaped and cleaned the engine harness. I intend to use regular split plastic wire loom there.
