    Confirm Analog Tach Setting

    How do I confirm which analog tach setting I need for my 175 Pro XS 4 Stroke (SN 2B597933)?

    I suspect my is set wrong or reading incorrectly.

    Setting is dependent on the tach you have or are using. That being said- Analog Tachs are notoriously inaccurate (even when properly set). A Smartcraft Instrument would be a wise investment, if you do not already have one.

    I've got Vessel View Mobile on order, just wondered if I could confirm my Analog in the mean time.
