as an alternative, there should be a hole in the flywheel housing that is threaded for a mag p/u.... Magnetic Pickup... typically, its a 2 wire pickup that has no moving parts, but a small magnet in the end... as the teeth of the flywheel pass infront of the magnet, it creates a small electrical signal... run the wires to a standard hour meter and you are done...
diesel powered chippers, stump grinders..etc... all use this simple setup to run the auto-feed features... same mag pickup that is used to power a tachometer.
