If the tach is reading double=2C you don't have a tach built for an engine but probably a direct drive tach for a piece of machinery. Engine tach's typically run off of the cam=2C 1/2 crankshaft speed. There are plenty of old tachs out there without haveing to go electronic. Gene > Subject: Pietenpol-List: first run

Jeff,Congratulations!!! Beautiful sounds!! Does your homemade prop make a lot-o-wind? You can get a small gearbox made by www.bobsspeedometer.com to compensate. Nice ignition system. Hey, how did you get that N number 1929F? I tried every which way to get anything with 1929 in it for years. You dawg!Dan HelsperPuryear, TN-----Original Message-----

Welcome Mattijs to the world of Pietenpols!!Seems like a lot of Hollanders are attracted to this beautiful little plane,I'm half Dutch myself. Am going back next fall to visit some family as amatter of fact.As has been mentioned, the archives are a great place to start researchingyour questions. Another suggestion would be to contact the BrodheadPietenpol Association and inquire about purchasing back issue magazines(magazines from previous years). There are still some people building andflying Fords, but back in the eighties and nineties there were a LOT, sothere are many articles pertaining specifically to the Ford.You can contact them at bpan(at)tds.netPretty much any part or accessory you need for that engine is available inthe states. Feel free to let us know what you are having a hard timefinding and I'm sure some of us with some Ford experience will be happy tohelp point you in the right direction.
