Tach connection cap?
I'm closing in on finishing up the firewall forward and have a question about the tachometer connection at the back of my O320-D1A. Since I will not have a tach that connects there, is there a cap that should be put on to cover that up? If so, does anyone know the part number and where to get it? Thanks!

Van's has one in their catalog (look for electric tachometers). I bought a nicer one from Aircraft Spruce (Bob's link above) which I think is made by Andair that has safety wire holes incorporated on the top.

I had a old tach cable
So I cut the retainer off of it, put a penny inside and screwed it on, free. It was a year 2000 penny, when the plane first flew, nice touch!

What a great way to commemorate the birth year of your plane
