Default too hot or not?

OOPS!
Sorry, didn't read your full post.

For that small diesel, I'd say you are probably OK with the single
Pyrometer but I'm not a Diesel Mech. I got by with a single Temp
indicator for 17 years without a problem.



That proves a temperature gauge is a reliable system worth having. 17
years of motoring almost daily and putting the sails up once or twice a
year means that diesel sure got some hours on it.
