How do you calibrate a boat RPM gauge?
You just turn the adjuster on the pot clockwise to raise the needle reading and counter clockwise to lower it. I would adjust the throttle so the engine reads 1,000 rpm on the timing light then adjust the calibration pot so the tach in the boat matches the timing light reading.2018-10-08
