Many apparent engine problems can be caused through inaccurate tachometers. Where
engine performance is observed to be outside limits, the tachometer should be checked
against a calibrated instrument before other troubleshooting is attempted.
Two types of sender have been used on Jabiru Engines as shown in Figure 37 (Type 1) and
Figure 38 (Type 2).
For the Type 1 sender, the gap between the tip of the sender and the tags on the flywheel is
0.4mm (0.016"). The sender must have at least 60% covered by the tags fitted to the gearbox
side of the flywheel. Ensure both tags are equal distance from sender.
CAUTION
The tip of the sender is delicate and easily damaged. Care must be taken when adjusting
the sender gap to ensure the tag does not hit the sender.
Type 2 senders are installed per the requirements of Figure 38.
