Kubota L3800 Tachometer Not Working

This is a real diagnostic teardown for an L3800 owner whose tachometer works only after the engine warms up, not the common fully-dead-tach issue most videos cover. It walks through removing side covers and dash panel bolts, pulling the tach cable, cleaning and greasing the gear drive, and testing again once warm. The fix didn't work, and a replacement cluster quotes around $1,100, so he leaves it as-is. Useful for owners diagnosing similar intermittent gauge issues.
