Post Installed T Tach on 23 van,? How many wraps?
I am trying to dial the T Tach on my 23 Van GD Longtail and was to lazy to look it up. I was curious as to how many wraps you guys used on yours to get a proper reading? I am reading 1300 on idle and 3800-3950 at wot in the yard out of water. Does this sound right? It is a 2003 used motor. I want to use it for a reliable motor this year and may blow it out for fun for next summer. Any info would be really cool. Thanks. CD

The instruction that are printed on the package that it came in says a minimum of 3 wraps.

And sound like you need to make a couple of adjustments to the motor to get your idle down a little and your wot up a little.
