Yes... look right next to the top spark plug and there might even be a pre-tapped hole for the stock Mercury overtemp sensor.-W

Interesting, Clams. I just noticed the tapped hole the other day and wondered what it was for.

There you go.... use the lead out of the sensor to ground a 12v "hot-horn". Game over.-W
