With the reading of my 2007/08 Merc EFI 40 hp they show or speak of a all in one analog type meter that covers oil/amp /volts etc. Does and Mercury experts know of this The Sport 130 had limited dash/console space.
I attached a picture of all my gauges, all in one ! This is the Smartcraft gauge that I use with a Merc Optimax, lots of info,don't know if it works with a 40. http://s212.photobucket.com/albums/cc...tcraft.jpg
Being that modern 4 stroke outboard are all over or near 200 lbs. they are not suitable, I believe, for Classic 13 ft. whalers, a boat originally designed in 1956 for motors of about 100 lbs. I don`t know if the current new 13 ft. Whaler is designed for this much engine weight.

Jim, that's exactly the gauge I'm considering for my 2008 130 Sport. What is required other than the gauge to install? I've seen a wiring harness and junction box for Smartcraft. Are either of these required for a single gauge install?
