'90 240 stalling problems...again 200 1990

The RPM Sensor is replaced from beside the right fender. When you can see it—you can't touch it and vice versa. I did mine by braille, using a 1/4" ratchet w/10mmsocket (left-handed) in under 10 minutes. A good thing to rule out, IMO, if it's the original '90 vintage.

Here is a picture of an RPM Sensor in place, and engine apparently moved forward. An older 700 series I think.

P.S. "I am thinking this could be the AMM, so I will test this tonight.'
IMO (and that of many more expert than I am) you will be wasting your time. I think it was Art Benstein who said, "Nobody ever found a bad AMM with a meter." or words to that effect. Good enough for me.

I do believe the experts might use a meter on an AMM as an aid to tweaking mixture adjustment, but not diagnostically. My 2˘ worth.
