Is there anway to monitor drive temp?.

happy hours

I wanted to watch the drive temp and stuck a thermocouple to the top drive cap surface once and klunged up a temperature meter. I think I have seen a drive lube temp monitors around though. You could use a transmission temp gauge and adapt the sensor.

Something like this would work:

I am interested in drive temperature as well. Recently I had an oil leak in the reserve like that attaches to the outdrive and when repairing I noticed that there where 2 wires not connected to anything coming from the drive laying in my extention box. I was thinking that these might be from drive temperature sensors? Can anyone tell me where the sensors would normally be mounted?

Livorsi had them, but I think Elite Marine posted that the thermocouplers are no longer available.

i have had better luck with the bravos on my cat since i know the temp man when you get that boat flyin the outdrive temp guages chase the tach haha you have to back off and let them cool down guess the water goes away from the drive showers at high speeds
