i have a 12 yr old JD 2520 tractor. The cable had broken. I found that the tachometer shaft was very difficult to turn. I freed it up with WD 40. In the process I rotated the shaft backwards and forwards slightly several times. It now turns freely. However, when the engine runs, the tach indicates a much higher speed than it should. Can this be corrected? I heard that it may be due to oil in the tach's input shaft bearing.
