I used a digital photo tach just pointed it at the auger sprocket and I did it inside my heated garage. The wife said it was to cold to take pics on Sunday when I was blowing snow, but that cab is sure nice. Oh and I forgot to add that
my motor runs at 3290 rpm, I think they should run 3450 at wot. Does that sound right?
Sasky - yes 3450 is the recommended WOT speed. You'll be amazed how much that little rpm boost makes to your 318. Mine was running 3180 this summer and when I got it up to 3450 it felt like a completely different machine.
