The tach in my speedboat is stuck and no longer works. Im running a 89 Mercury Force 150 outboard. Where can I find a tach that works with this engine? Since its a 5cyl. 2 stroke im not finding any that are compatable. Id like to update all my gauges to white face style but need the tach first so I can match the rest up afterwards...
any info would be much appreciated..

I beleive you will be looking for a 20 pole tach for Force!

It doesn't matter how many cylinders you have. The tach is a special one for 20 pole alternators and uses the alternator frequency as a signal.

Teleflex makes white faced gauges BUT I think the 20 pole tach only comes in the international red series.
