Tack & Safety

The pictures are a Stihl tack that is very useful for gas engines. The pick up wire is simply hooked over the plug wire. Actually anywhere close will work. Start the engine and the tack comes on. Stop the engine and after a minute the tack turns off.

The very best feature is that I don’t need to get anywhere close to the spinning propeller to read the RPM. The prop for a gas engine at WOT is more than a little dangerous. Mount the tack and loop the pick up over the plug wire and your full concentration can then be focused on setting the needles.
