Hey, thanks for the video. I just bought the same tractor and installed an hour meter. I wanted to let you know that I found a better way to route the wire away from hot spots. Slide the wire up as high as you can on the spark plug wire, then remove the plastic air filter cover. You'll see that there are openings on the back of the air filter housing that will allow you to feed the wire through that housing and then back towards the dash, eliminating the possibility of melting the wire or, if the tape fails, getting mangled on any moving components. Hope that helps. FWIW, I also installed a voltmeter to keep an eye on the battery, and that install was just as easy. Thanks again.

Scott Delaney - I just did it easy for me to service if i have to. Thanks for letting me know. I will have to look in to it.
A bread tie works real well instead of the ziptie. ;)
