I had to replace the cylinder head on the MD2030, everyone tells me it cracked because it overheated. Overheating has never happened to me, I also asked the previous owner and he tells me that he had an alarm once, but 5-6 years have passed since then. It doesn't make sense to me that the cylinder head was cracked for the last 5-6 years. But what is there is there.
I spoke to the mechanic and he tells me that when the alarm goes off it's already too late. The mechanic thinks it's much better to have coolant temperature and oil pressure gauges than alarms, because you can spot earlier when the temperature starts to rise. It doesn't make sense to me, because you don't look at the indicators the whole time you're sailing.
My question is whether I can have alarms and coolant temperature and oil pressure gauges?
I found these sensors. I don't know if I need isolated earth sender or earth return sender?
Do you know which thread and the pressure range is suitable for the MD2030.

Where it makes sense to measure the temperature in order to detect as early as possible that cooling has stopped.
