I am working on correct Carb adjustment and IT Ford Shop Manual says to adjust idle at carb to 400 RPM Engine Speed. Is there a tachometer available from Napa, Harbor Freight, etc. that I can use to measure actual engine RPM? While I am at it, I also would like to measure my RPMs at the PTO. I know there is a conversion chart for calculating PTO speed at various engine speeds, but I would still like to be able to take a direct measurement. I suspect most people with 9Ns and 2Ns have the same issue when adjusting an idle speed. Any suggestions on what to buy would be a real help, Thanks to ALL, Larry. PS, it was a bit of a surprise, but adjusting the carb enrich setting really worked in fixing my hesitation problem under load. Easier than rebuilding my Gov!
