CH25S MDI tach?
So this was really a Simplicity question
(begging forgiveness), but I think there are more folks here than on that forum and the Kohler ch series v-twins are the same either way so I'll pose the question here. I have a ch25s that the original ignition went bad on and of course replacement parts are no longer available and the update to the MDI ignition was required (new flywheel & coil packs). The problem??? NO provision for tach hook-up! Kohler says "sorry, you're out of luck". But I'm thinking there has to be a way. Ideas? The factory dash tach requires a high voltage signal spike (similar to an older tach that would hook to the negative side of a ignition coil) |

You might try to wrap the pickup wire 4 or 5 wraps around one of the spark plug wires.

If you do that on a twin you will need to multiply the number by 2

Some 2 cylinder engines fire both plugs @ the same time. I.E, a wasted spark design/system. I can think of several that fire both plugs @ the same time. You would divide . Also 2 stroke vs 4 stroke |

You are correct. I should have been more specific. I was really replying more to this specific case in point.unless im mistaken the ch25 is not wasted spark correct?

All of the Magnum and KT engines are. There are two separate coils on a CH, but they both fire every time the flywheel goes past them.

So... there are 2 coils. They are triggered by the flywheel passing the coil. Theres only one magnet on the ch25 flywheel. The coils arent mounted togerher. So how could they fire at same time ?

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.
