AND, you get a bonus,,, HOURMETER!!

Oh my -- what a wonderful world we live in!
A little unclear about -- do you wire this in line with the spark plug cable or can you hook it up to the coil? I don't like the idea of splicing into the HV cable but it's not like the ol' tractors an airplane so I could get over that...

That made me "laugh out loud"
The ones I've seen were "inductive" getting the signal from a small gauge wire wrapped a turn or two AROUND the HV lead to the plug.
I can just picture an actual "tap" to the high voltage lead, and every time the plug fires,
the hands spin on the meter just like a cuckoo clock on Saturday morning cartoons when I was a kid.

If you can't make somebody laugh there's really no point to living...

We've all seen some very scary design ideas from China to grace our shores...

I like the idea of it being inductive -- figured that would cost more...

Both my beloved Huey and C-130's have 'glass cockpits' HUD's. I can be amused by a digital solid state meter gracing a Cub...

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
