Mike,I installed a tee for the overheat sensor. Then install a temperature sender for a guage. I mounted the temp guage, and an oil press Guage in the cockpit. I also added a sensor on the exhaust hose just after the mixing elbow. This sets off an alarm. But no light. It goes off at 200* f. For when I lose cooling water.

Has anyone installed a dedicated temperature gauge on a yanmar engine similar to 3GM30F? Can it be as simple as attaching to the sender unit that goes to the idiot light on the control panel? When a panel alarm goes off I usually shut down the engine immediately and forget to check which lamp was lit. Would be nice to have a temp gauge for reference. I do have an oil pressure gauge and would love to have both Thanks Mike Persistence Haliofax
