Interesting. In 1982 we received M1 tanks in my unit at Fort Hood. The RPM on the automotive gas turbine engine was red via a magnetized tooth on a plate gear in the AGB (accessory gear box). The system quantified RPM by counting the number of times the magnetized gear tooth passed by the sensor every few seconds. The AGB was, in turn, driven by a PTO that extended down out of the compressor housing. Some engineer had done the match and new the ratio of actual turbine shaft RPM to the RPM of the plate gear in the AGB.
My VC was sealed using a sealant like RTV or Permatex. It is blue. It looks like a neatly done job.
I still need to get under the vehicle and clean the leak area. I tried last weekend and between an ice cold north wind and my jack and stands being too short I could not get the power washer wand in the right position. This weekend looks to be warmer!
