I have a 75HP 1978 Chrysler outboard (757H8D). In the Clymer shop manual I have it mentions a tell tale but doesn't say where it is. Does anyone know if there is a screw that I can replace with a hose adapter? Thanks!

They didn't have one from the factory in 1978, but there's a sticky in this forum on how to do it. I just put one in my 85hp this past weekend.

In the top of the head there is a 1/8 NPT stainless plug, slotted head. It is a bear to get out and an impact screwdriver really helps but you can screw in a brass 1/8 NPT barbed fitting there and run tubing to wherever you want
