Hey guys, new jet boat owner with a gently used 2017 Scarab 195 Open w/250hp power plant. Caveat on the buy was the temperature sensors was bad and it’s been ordered. Problem is that the dealership says it’s on backorder without any sort of lead time. My question is if there is a aftermarket or non-OEM part I could supplement with until the Rotax one comes in? Boat runs fine but I’m not getting all 250hp out of it with the sensor being stuck.

I found it on Crowley but their stock says the same:

Let me know what you guys think.

That's the same part as BRP 420222423 that you can have for $29 on EBAY

I cannot believe you found it... I went round and round with the dealer, Crowley and Rotax trying to find the right part number. They even sent me the wrong sensor. Finally got it figured out today. Unfortunately, it sounds like its not going to be here in time to get me on the water by labor day weekend...

Got a $12 used sensor off of ebay and it came just in time to take it out over the holiday weekend. Ran like a champ! Thanks JetTech72!
