    Oil Alarm going off with '98 Yamaha ProV150 two stroke

    How are the thermostats? Has the main tank oil level changed at all? It should not be topped off all of the time, it should drop enough to see that it dropped before the pump turns on to fill it up from the sub tank.

    Service Batteries - run out of charge

    Look all over the batteries to see if there are any letters or numbers/date burnt into the plastic case, as with tires there may be a date code. Sometimes there's a sticker with the date on it. Depending on where you are many auto parts stores load test batteries too.

    Service Batteries - run out of charge

    Best technique for waterproof solders?

    Fuses on a 1986 four winns.

    If something doesn't power up the fuse may be blown. If the fuses aren't labeled turn all of the accessories on then pull one fuse at a time and see what turns off then label it.
