I think to put a tach on a diesel you need a converter box or something to plug into your alternator, to read the revolutions off of that or something. I don't know for sure but I remember reading something like that. Its not as simple as hooking up to a coil wire on a gas engine

We use a strobe light to check RPM on engines, shafts, etc. where we cannot have or do not have a tachometer. Interesting how it totally freezes the motion to the point we have to watch ourselves because we might absent-mindedly reach into a turning fan, etc.
