One of the things that I really didn't like about the smaller LS tractors when I was researching them was the dashboard/digital tachometer.
I finally decided on an MT125 thinking I would get used to it. The tractor was delivered this last Friday and I really hate not having an analog tachometer. (Pet peeve of mine)

Looking over some aftermarket tachometers and most wire up to an "M" terminal on the rear of the alternator. I checked out the alternator on my MT125, and I didn't take the sheet metal cover off the rear of the alternator, but it looks like we don't have an "M" terminal on it.

Anyone know if one of the 3 leads on the connector to the rear of the alternator might happen to be a tach trigger?

(volt meter going on soon also...)

You could also put a sensor on the flywheel housing to count teeth, and buy that style of Tach.
