Tach cable help

JeffPhillips · Sep 13, 2019

I need some help finding a tach cable for a diesel 3414. Most cables listed for this machine specify that they are for the gas variant, not the diesel. I finally found one for a B414, which while being of the correct configuration, is only 36" long compared to the required 48" length.

The parts manual lists it as two parts
Shaft: 3049482r91
Core: 3049371r1

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

How about the one linked below?

If NOT, what ends do you need?

I see this very site, our gracious hosts, have it, as well.

Please forgive me, I know very little about tach cables. With the product suggested in the above link, I see no reference to the tractor model nor to the listed parts numbers. How are you cross referencing the model numbers to know it will work?

The usual failure was the tach drive mechanism that ran off the top of the oil pump shaft on the BD-154 Diesel.
Also if you live in a colder climate make sure that the tach cable has a coating of a light grease so that moisture doesn't collect and allow tach cable to freeze to the outer cable.
