Ahhh... thats better. 7psi or so... spot-on for a vane blower.

Tacho is a little more difficult with a maggie, but not impossible. No mechanical tach drive in your maggie, so you will need a signal convertor to pick up the tacho feed, then you can use whatever tacho you fancy.

Something like these, but be careful as some are only suitable for external coil maggies (yours is internal coil):

Not yet - going to work it through with sparky - hopefully through the ignition but maybe with an extra kill switch nearby as a backup

Linkage on and working - needs some finessing on springs etc but seams to be functional - clutch slave should be back midweek then bleed systems and maybe a little drive Image ImageImage

Ok so that pull back spring is a much better solution than my dodgy spring but where can I get one? Is there a new one available somewhere? Image
