Can anyone tell me where the tacho drive should be on the 180 and perhaps even give me a pic of what it looks like?
Thanks in advance

Maybe electrical off the back of the alternator?Kwakatriple wrote: So I am putting a Perkins Phaser 180ti into my 1964 Bedford bus but there is no obvious tacho drive on the motor. I pulled the cover off that exposes the end of the injector pump drive thinking I would swap the drive off the old 6354 but discovered it is all different and it turns in the opposite direction so that is clearly not going to work.

I'd like to fit all the gauges with the chrome rings and the scale etched onto the back of the lens... but perhaps I'll have to canibalise the electric movement and put it into the mechanical case...? Electric ones are simpler of course...
Cheers
