Temp gauge on a jetski

[BBYamaha]

Thumbing through ebay saw this with a temp gauge. Being that seadoo, yamaha, kawi, have never thought to put a temp sensor one would think there is no logical reason to put one on there, then again most the time they dont change anything on a jetski for years on end...

Is this a good idea or bad idea. I know you dont stare at your feet when riding so I would think its a waste.. but then again if it were to start running poorly you stop and look down you might see the problem...

kawasaki 750's had a sensor in the e-box that would weakin the spark and just give you enough power to get back to shore without doin too much damage, it ended up bein a problem on mine so i just disconnected it

I use this setup to adjust water restrictors at the bypass fittings.

It's not permanent but it allows you see the temperatures while tuning.

I'll ship it out, if you want to barrow it.

I'd leave the restrictors out during the new engine break-in period.

Thats alright, I would have no idea what to look for, I usually figure If it I can touch the water at all its to dam hot and it needs more flow. Wow, thread dumping on my own thread, dont remember if you pm me the b pipe specs but what should I have the pipe screws set at? Would rather lean on the safe side...
