My alarm on my '90 175 seems to engage itself with no rhyme or reason. Intermintent beeps, rapid beeps, long steady. Bouncing between all three seemingly without any consistency or obvious causes. The VRO has been disabled, I have new plugs, new stater, have installed an electronic in-line fuel pump, completely cleaned the carbs, ... Could it be overheating? and would the power pack be a factor? (the only thing I haven't replaced yet)
I mix the oil in the tank - 50:1, - and with the fuel pump, I know it can't be oil or fuel pressure. Water "pees" out clean and steady from the motor like it should. Just don't know enough to figure it out, and don't want to ruin the motor by overheating it. Anyone who could take a stab would help greatly.
Thanks
