I took my tm in to have the rpm check out. The guy said he can adjust it by just the sound and looking at the belts to see when they level out. Is this possible are is there some kind of gauge to use?
Calculate your vac speed by the pulley size...
Run the rpm's on the motor to achieve approximately 3300-3400 rpm's on the vac...Best to ya ....Richard R.

Dang Taf if thats true I guess I should be looking for a replacment engine for my 2 year old mount. If these machines are only going to go 3-4 years they aint such a bargin!!!
goodness mine was runnin 3200 for a week my god it was hot
in the van noticed a big increase in fuel useage
went to harbor frieght and bought a hand held tach 40 bucks i think
2800 rpm now on a 30 hp kohler much better ya lost some vac but lot better on fuel now
go on the web and look at your engines torque curve mine is 2800 perfect
and i'm sure its better for the life of the motor
