Mine is way off! PO said Oh I just deal with it. He had a list in Nav. table what to run/read Tach at and what RPM engine was actually doing. I would love to have things match up rather than check the sheet but was told it was not possible?

I bought a laser tach from the link below. I take that into account. Replacement doesn't make it better. Mine has been low since new. It doesn't come off the alternator either.

So my engine is a Yanmar 2GM20F. I find the vibration "sweet spot" for motoring is about 2200 rpm. Sounds like I should be pushing it harder trying to find a sweet spot at a higher rpm? I can't recall what the tachometer range is on my boat. I've also had someone mention pushing the engine up to a high rpm before shutting it down for what reason I don't know. Lastly, I notice truckers never shut off their engines immediately after a highway haul. Should I idle my engine before shutting down after a long motor. Thanks for your thoughts.

I believe this to be a result of regulatory keeping the engine load as high as possible.
