I doubt there will be near enough ripple. The pulse at the points is
very defined and the peak voktage is quite a bit higher than the low
level ripple present at the charger.
No harm in trying though.

You can't miss it, eh Gary? My tach looks to be as dead as a doornail so I asked one of the Guzzi Wizards on the other list for advice. He said to hook it up to a cheap battery charger, that the charger would produce enough "ripple" to fire the tach. He predicted a reading of 3500 RPM. Unfortunately this weekend was a nightmare and I never made it to the garage on Sunday to test his theory so keep us updated. I am especially curious to see if your T3 experiment shows real RPM or exactly half. David in nyc |
