TOPIC: 1982 Merc 115

1982 Merc 115 11 years 1 month ago #85360

Does anyone know if it is possible to install a water pressure gage on one of these old girls? Seems to me it would be a nice way to keep track of the water flow through the block.

Thanks

check for a pipe plug on the rear water jacket or on top of the block.

Water pressure, water temp, in with the pee tube.

On my '77 115 I just have a tee at the point on the block where 50's flash has the fittings on his. One side goes to the gauge, the other to the "pee hole". It doesn't stick out as far because he has an extra fitting for the temp gauge. I figure as long as I have pressure,I don't need to worry about the temp.

Wish I could. The powerhead is in Key Largo, FL at Chris Carson's getting the "special" overhaul. It;s just a "T" in the pee hose hole.
