A tachometer works by measuring how many time a spark plug fires. If the tachometer is designed to determine the rpm of an 8 cylinder engine it will not show the correct speed of a 2 cylinder engine. If I remember correctly if the tachometer designed for an 8 cylinder is used on a 4 cylinder engine it will show twice the number of actual rpm. So an 8 cylinder tachometer used on a 2 cylinder engine will show 4 times the actual rpm of the 2 cylinder engine. If you check around there are special tachometers designed for 2 cylinder engines.
That is an engine model number of the Kohler engine on the generator. Look on the generator end or on the control box for a similar metal tag that says "Kohler Generator" and it will have something like "6.5R22" with a spec and serial number listed below that in separate fields on the nameplate.
A digital tachometer measures the speed of objects. They measure the rotations of an engine shaft in a car and then record the number of revolutions per minute on a dial.
I have used parts for that engine. 740 252-6348 Jim

There are a number of places one is able to purchase autometer gauges. One can purchase them from eBay where there are many listed for sale or from Auto Anything.

To Determine what spark plug is in your 16hp enging you would need to be more specific. It could have a Briggs and Stratton engine or it could have a Kohler engine. Both engines use different spark plugs. The spark plug for the Kohler engine is part number 32295-1. The part number for the B&S engine is 43591-7
My Kohler and Campbell Piano was Manufactured By Kohler and Campbell, the serial number is- 551486. Can you tell me the year it was built?
You will need to tell us the model number and type for that info. -Kohler makes MANY engines, some with vertical shaft and some with horizontal shaft, all with different oil capacities. - We wouldn't want to give you incorrect information -
