    Hi Audioguru In the right up the author sugested the following. Depending on the engine's cylinders number, R11 can be unable to set the device properly. In some cases you must use R11=200K and R12=100K or less. I did follow his advice but with with little change. So I thought I could make...

    Hi Audioguru A small problem. I need to change some resistor values in the warning part of the circuit.(Old circuit) When I set R11 to 47K it moans on 1000 rpm. When I adjust R11 to 0 the highest revs I get is 1500 rpm. I need to gain at least another 2000 rpm. Because I cant go further than...
