    Hopefully, the powers that be at Polaris will realize that everything would look so much better if they add the same size gauge on the other side. Maybe a gas gauge? Cmon Polaris!

    Great job! This vid is extremely helpful for when I go to install mine when the barn gets about 10 degrees warmer. Lucky that dropped bolt fell all the way through at the 7:18 mark. My luck it would end up lodging somewhere never to be seen again. My son and I actually had a small crescent wrench "vaporize" in the engine compartment of a Honda Accord once.

    Thank you for this great video. Just finished installing tachometer on my 2021 Scout. FYI, I removed the headlight, disconnected the UPB wire from behind the headlight, and removed the speedometer. This made it a lot easier, as I didn’t have to work on the speedometer in that awkward positions.

    question, if I wanted to install a fuel gauge on the other side, do you think I could stack a second one of those brackets under the bezel? or would it be too tight a fit?

    • @Jimbobbington

      Check out Hemisphere Performance. They just released a fuel gauge and you can get a double bracket from them to mount both the fuel gauge and the tach just like you are describing.

    Why did you turn the fuel pump on 3 times before starting the engine? Have you been having problems? It sounded like it had trouble starting. I would have thought priming it so many times would flood it, no?

    • @Jimbobbington
      @Jimbobbington  11 месяцев назад +2

      No issues, I had simply disconnected the fuel tank and the fuel line bled during the process. Was simply ensuring the fuel line was filled back up before starting it up. No risk of flooding on a fuel injected machine.

      It comes on at something like ~7500 rpm based on my testing. You really have to push it towards redline to see the light.

      Is only there to remind you you'll hit redline soon, but you can't see it out of the corner of your eye anyway, so it's kinda pointless.
