SmartCraft Gauges

We dont think a 2001 model carb engine has the computer that drives the gauges.

I was told to get a small drill bit, and use your hand and just twist the drill bit in the intake hole to clean out the garbage. Steve

If you use your gps then why dont you just hook it up to the smartcraft gauges, then it will always be right and not have worry about a clog.

I think I need to clarify, I was meaning did the hole being clogged affect what smartcraft would say my average MPG in fuel consumption was. Such as at 50 mph 4500 rpms 3.6mpg etc.

I would be willing to say yes it will effect you miles per gal. Im not 100% sure. When I sat down and thought about it, I would say yes it will effect it. If your only going 2mph (and really going 70mph) I would say it is taking the reading from 2mph and how much fuel you are using to get there. Im dont know much about the smartcraft gauges. Hang in there Im sure someone will come along with an answer… Steve

Just wire it to your GPS antenna if you have a receiver. BCB

You can do it either way. You can run the SC1000 Mini Gauge and have the digital readings, or you can tap the Brown and Blue wire in the Mercury harness for an analog temp gauge. The wire is already at the dashboard. The SC 1000 Mini Gauge will require a harness from the engine. BCBLast edited by Bass Cat Boats on June 11th, 2009, 4:01 am, edited 1 time in total.

What year and hp do you have? It will make a huge difference where your limiter is set at.BrianBrianHAWG Hunter2013 BassCat Eyra2013 Mercury 250 Pro XS Gen2 L/U

I have done it a couple of times. Buy everything from European on BBC–They will walk you through it.

I did not have Beede gauges but completely switched over to Smartcraft gauges. It was not hard but took a little time… Here is my thread in Bassboat Central:http://www.bbcboards.net/showthread.php … highlight=RH

Also, your limiter (warning horn) is more of a window from 5650 to about 5900. The hard limiter is at the upper end of that window. Your tach is definitely off.
