I have finally found me an engine for a project garden tractor I am working on. It is a D662 that was imported by a guy who gets them in a container. It has a tach drive on the front of the gear housing. I would like to put it to use and add a mechanical tachometer. Anybody have any idea what drive ratio this would be? Were there Kubotas that had a tach that would work? I have seen a couple online that looked interesting. The guy I got the engine from mentioned something about possibly using parts from a motorcycle to adapt a tach. Anyone heard of that? Lots of questions, I know, but surely someone here has been through this...maybe. Thanks!
How to use tach drive on Kubota D662?

So, simple as that! Mr. Vic, are the new ones still available? I imagine finding a used one is going to be a bit of a struggle? Lots of cables out there so it shouldn't be a problem. Will a tach out of a different model, besides the B series, work? Thanks for the help!!!
Tim, somewhere out there on the web I found a post by Vic from another site the mentions something about fixing the drive you have. I think there was something about putting a washer somewhere then packing it with grease If I find it again I'll post it.
Anybody know the part number on a tach from a B 5/6/7? I don't have a manual for them. I do for my dad's L3000 and the cable from it will work but not the tach. I need a stand alone tach. Maybe something on eBay from another brand might work with some creative engineering of the cable? Maybe....

I have a similar problem. The drive for the tach isn't working. Any help with finding parts would be appreciated. Thanks...
I bought a new tach drive from my Kubota dealer for my B620. I don't rember it being that expensive. It was a little hard to change sinc I did not want to pull the radiator.
