Typical livewell fill pump, through-transom intake - who among us hasn't burned one up by forgetting to turn it off while underway?
The other day it occurred to me - if I connect the ground from the pump to my outboard kill circuit, the pump will go off when I start the motor, and come back on when I shut it off.
I can't have been the first person to think of this, so.....why isn't it common practice? I mean, why shouldn't I do this?
thanks!
