have the current tach calibrated before replacement.. those cheap hold in
your hand and look at the prop works pretty good.

Friday, one of my partners and I changed the oil. Afterwards, we took it
up
for a spin to reward ourselves. As I rotated, I glanced down at the tach
and was rather horrified. Redline on the Archer is 2,700 RPM. We were
turning 3,300! 600 RPM over redline.
Great story -- thanks, Bob.
Question: I can understand how a tach fails and shows "zero" RPM -- but
how does it fail and show *higher* RPM?
