I just wanted to say hi, I have been searching this forum since I just bought my first tractor and have already found a lot of good information. I have a lot to learn with my old 544 hydro. So far I love it.
 
First stupid question. The tach is not working, upon further review the cable is missing. I figure one end goes to the tach, where does the other end go to? Sorry for the basic question, I am learning as I go.
 
The other end of the cable will go somewhere on the engine. If it is a
diesel, then probably to the fuel injector pump. It it runs on
gasoline or propane, probably to the distributor. My email is open,
you can write me. Good luck, Hugh
 
If you get a cable, try to turn it by hand. If the cable is missing, it probably broke. A new one could also fail, and you still wouldn't have it fixed. Tachometer could be frozen solid.
 
The tachometer is working!! Thanks again everyone. Now I need to try to fix the throttle creep. It won't get above 2000 rpm unless I hold the throttle back.
