I usually don't follow this kind of thread cuz I don't hava a waterleaker,
but there's a "Head Temp" sensor setup of some kind or other used on
the Aircooleds, and available from the Bus Depot unless I'm getting senile
or something.  Can it be adapted to a Wasserboxer...I dunno, but I bet
someone
here could figure it out.
