If anyone is interested in installing heat sensors and gauges on their outboard send an e-mail to to me at [email protected], and I will send you the writeup with pictures.
My motivation for doing this project was that I’m concerned about the Honda overheat sensor detecting a overheat situation while I’m miles from homeport and immediately shutting down the engine. I want some warning before that happens. An extra bonus is that I can continuously monitor my engine heat, establish norms, and know when it’s time to change out the water pump or impeller before it gets bad enough to trigger the Honda overheat alarm.
