There are YouTube videos showing you how to do it.
I was able to break the bendix loose with a ratchet wrench and lubed it with lithium. It's an Arco I don't think Chinese brand. I was able to pump fuel up to the pump but it took a while. I ran the motor for around 30 minutes. Thinking now I may replace all the fuel lines.
I don't hear the alarm. It's possible it's overheating and the alarm isn't working. I'll check the primer. I don't think it's the fuel tank because I tried connecting a smaller tank. If it's overheating will it automatically shut off?
1995 90hp had carbs rebuilt. Ran fine for two hours. Next time out after 30 minutes dies and won't restart. Started fine the next day. I thought it was water in the gas so I installed a water separator. Took the boat out yesterday it dies after 30 minutes and won't restart.
