Looking for a tachometer for a 1957 D-17 Diesel. I have one for a gas engine and I found out that diesel tachs spin the oppisite way. First I wanted to verify that I am not crazy and if anyone has a tach for a diesel. Thank you for your time.

I think you are right about the gas tach. I put an aftermarket one in a D-17D series III from Steiner that looks good.
