What A meter fixed to a vehicle that measures and displays its speed?

In most vehicles it is a speedometer; in commercial vehicles a tachograph is used. The tachograph not only measures and displays the speed but also records the distance and speed driven over time; it is also more accurate than those in cars with an error of about 1-2% whereas those in cars are only accurate to about 10% and generally over estimate speed. They are checked every 2 years for calibration and recalibrated every 6 years unlike those in cars.

What does a tach do?

It measures Revolution Per MInute (RPM). This is important in performance cars or hard working motors to keep them from overreving which can cause engine damage. On an everyday car they are used very little.


How does tachometer work in diesel engine?

A tachometer works the same on almost all cars exept motorcycles. Now first you need to know what a camshaft is. If you don't search it on google. The RPM's or Rotations Per Minute, Are the rotations your camshaft makes. Quick extra: your cranckshaft rotates twice as fast as your camshaft makes. So when you are revving at 3000 rpm your cranckshaft wil rotate at 6000 rpm.
