Hi folks, George Coleman here. I was out enjoying the nice weather yesterday and my tachometer needle suddenly began to bounce around a bit and after about ten minutes of oscillations finally settled on zero. We will do some troubleshooting with my IA this weekend, but in the meantime I am guessing I might need a new cable and I wanted to canvas the membership for sources. The instrument is an original Stewart-Warner CCW non-recording tach with the angle drive, driven by an A-75. The Piper parts book says 34 inches. This seems like it wouldn't be that hard to come by, but I've learned that it's never too early to start checking on sources!

I've checked the usual suspects (Univair, Chief ) but was wondering if any of you had suggestions for alternate suppliers? Thanks for your help!

George
