Hello
I have a 2007 yamaha 50 hp 2 cycle engine. I had trouble will acceleration and pulled the carbs and cleaned. Seems to be running good. I put water muffs on it and the alarm sounded. It has oil injection and level is fine. The good people on this forum suggested two things. Thermostat and impeller. I replaced both. It takes 30 seconds for the water to pick up on the muffs but starts peeing good. I let it idle for about 5 minutes with water muffs on and the alarm went off again
The water coming out would go cool then very very hot then cool again. I imagine this is the thermostat opening and closing. I am totally at a loss now what could be setting off this alarm. I have never noticed the water being as hot as steam almost. I seem to be blindly replacing parts to no avail. Could it just need to be in the water and not on the muffs?
Appreciate ya'lls help and suggestions.
