just put motor on a pontoon and ran it for about 20 min yesterday, it ran fine and smooth. I get back to the dock and after idling in the no wake zone for baout 5 min the beeper started beeping... It was going, beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep... and wont stop. so I shut it down and check the oil, oil is fine and pumping so I feel the water and its only slightly warm and the motor did not feel hot at all. I idle on over to the boat slip still beeping and cut it off.
I went back today and started it and it started right up and then after about 2 seconds it started beep beep beep beep beep beep beep.....
it seemed like it was running rich? Might have just been because it wasnt warmed up? I reved the engine up and let it go back to idle and it killled itself but would start right back up and idle.
I took the oil cap off the resivoir on the top of the motor while the engine was running and it was pumping good. I also moved the oil float all the way to the top of the cap and it was still beeping...??
I was told that a constant beep beep beep beep beep means there is a oil injection problem?????
Any suggestions?
thanks
