Hello I am wanting to buy a tachometer to measure the RPMs k. My Briggs but before i do I wanted to ask how fast your motors spin

My motor is an ungoverned 5hp Briggs with a K&N airfilter and straight pipe header it also has racing carb on it but just runs gas

An ungoverned briggs with stock valve springs will be limited to around 5000rpm(IIRC) by valve float.

revolutions per minute

revoutions per minutes ?????

Maybe it should be "R'sPM" ?

 

[fowler]

its a revalation we've been wrong all these years

this thread consists of more jokes than answers

uy can get engine tachos

u can buy a proper tacho that u wire to your spark plug but itll cost u

or u can use a bike (pushbike) speedo
there is a formula that u can use to calculate the numbers the bike speedo needs

Actually I believe that its incorrect to use an apostrophe on revolutions. So you are wrong

All joking aside its just RPM
