1998 50hp jonson spl was fishing on river to day and went to head in and got right up on plain !
i hear a buzzer going off look down and no oil light is on ! shut down right away primer bulb for fuel was soft ,oil was full and hard so i primed fuel and ran it slow back to dock smoked normal ! took it back out and ran good till fuel primer buld went soft then alarm went off again motor never stalled or quit still ran great as normal ? so im really confused ?
buzzer was a steady sound ! any ideas do i need to reuild fuel pump but it never quit running this is why im confused ?

a little ruff running at idle ,other then that ran good ! no oil light went off only at full throttle never going slow !

Pull the VRO pump. Check air motor membrane and housing valves.
