I have a 96 150 Mercury Offshore. I took it out yesterday and ran for about 45 minutes, then stopped and swam for about 30 min. When we got back in the boat and cranked up there was a solid beeeeep. It is the same beep that comes on when the key is turned but not turned far enough to crank the motor.
I checked the oil and it was a little more than 1/2 full, so I topped it off. The alarm was still sounding after the oil was filled. Also when I took the oil cap off you could hear the pressure equalize, which makes me think the oil pump is still working. One other thing of note when I removed the oil cap ther was a small amout of smoke in the oil tank. IS THAT NORMAL?
I also check the screen where the oil is sucked out and it was clean. The tell tell is also shooting a good stream of water.
I was about 30 min from the ramp and I could not get the alarm to stop, I also reset the battery to see if it would stop. I finally poured what oil I had left in the gas tank and road home with a loud constant beeeeep.
Any advice would be great.
