I started my Honda 50 after 2-3 weeks of not using it and it started fine. As I went to trim the motor from full vertical position the alarm started to beep. I left the motor in the down position and it ran fine. Afterwards I checked the oil level thinking it was low and to my surprise the dip stick was covered in oil most of the way up, even after wiping it and trying again. The oil was at the correct level when I changed it this spring.
Could a bocked oil filter or failed oil pump result in the reservoir being so full. I plan to drain oil this weekend and replace filter, but wondered whether anyone has any thoughts on this.
Thanks for any help.
