Louis, a diesel engine does not operate the same as a gasoline engine. There are no spark plugs. The fuel/air mixture is fired by heat generated by extremely high compression. Most of the tach/hour meters you refer to are operated mechanically, from the engine. Your Kubota dealer should be able to provide the correct device for your tractor. ....
