My plane came with an 1835 VW of some sort, and it was set up with a 'Porsche Style' mechanical tach drive...
My issue? i'm not putting a mechanical tach in this plane - I'm using an EFIS with an electric tach input. I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions other than 'replace pump-cover and oil-pump drive gear' to deal with the (now un-needed) mechanical tach drive... Does anyone know of an electronic tach sender that fits this thing? Or of some way to buy a cap that will thread over the drive & seal it off (To prevent gunk getting in, or oil getting out)? I'm trying to avoid buying a new pump, or at a minimum a new pump-drive-gear and cover...
