tacho time is usually set to read correctly at the typical cruise RPM of 2300. RPM less than that will result in the time under reading and over that will result in over reading (ie it will count hours faster than true time). However the tach itself must be accurate and it is not unusual to see a tach errors of over 100 RPM as almost nobody does a static RPM check.
