I mainly want to to record rpms and how long I've been rinni g for.

 

[yamaha28]

only works with 4 strokes I think

 

[Quadrider10]

naaa works with all gas engines. as long as its single cylinder,

 

[yamaha28]

"Designed to work on all spark ignition engines with 4 stroke gas engine."

Not sure if all gas engines, or just 4 stroke

Read it again, line 13 "◦Designed to work on all spark ignition engines with 4 stroke gas engine" (copy/pasted) sorry. Probably would work but you would have to be good at math, all values would have to be divided by two 8-|

ive looked at thers on ebay, the same one, and it says all engines. 4', 2', twin, and such.

 

[Awk08]

looks interesting for the price, i'd like to see how many hours i put on in a season

edit......... the sensor is just the wire wrapped around the plug wire, and works off of inductance, and i do not see how that could determine if the spark, that induces the voltage, is from a 2 or 4 stroke, it cannot !!!
that'll work on any plug wire

 

[yamaha28]

yea, it only connects to the spark plug?

spark plug wire

as the coil sends the voltage thru the wire to spark, it induces a voltage on the tach wire wrapped around it, similar principle to any transformer/coil
each spark of your motor counts it as one rpm

Awesome! I might just pick one of these up for fun

 

[Quadrider10]

yupp. im still debating to order one....

 

[Awk08]

aaaahhhhh, that might be why it says for 4 strokes, it will count each spark as 2 rpm's, as the 4 poker is making double the revolutions as our 2 strokes ???

so at 5000 rpms, it'd prolly read 10,000 on our bikes ????

 

[yamaha28]

I wonder if there are different setting for 2 and 4 strokes

 

[Awk08]

here we go, this one is for 2 or 4 poke..................
(and cheaper)
