TDI 200 tachometer

[Blair]

Regarding my 1995 300 TDI,I'd be interested if anyone can clarify a couple of things.
1] What is the optimum rev level to maximise a) power and b) torque
2] What speeds do these represent in the various gears
3] Has anyone fitted a taco. on a diesel defender,cos I'm having trouble finding a supplier,let alone anyone who can tell me how to fit it.
The vehicle has stock standard tyres
Look forward to any help

There are a few posts on here about fitting tachos to defenders. Try a search if you haven't already done it.
On a 200tdi you should be able to get one that uses a wire from a particular connection on the back of the alternator to drive it.

Thanks Steve,
This is the first time I've tried using a forum and don't seem to be having much success.
I tried 'search' - typing in either tachometer or rev counter and came up with a blank.Probably not doing something quite right.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Regards Blair
