Hello,
While out on the water today, my Smartcraft tach alarm went off and indicated that my reservoir was down to 99%. I checked my onboard tank, and it was a little low (maybe had about 20%). I filled up the onboard tank, and checked what I think is the oil reservoir on the port side of the motor. The reservoir (i think thats what/where it is) looked full, and my onboard tank was filled too. The alarm continued to go off and the indicator on the gauge continued to show the level in the reservoir falling. My questions are; could this be an issue with the gauge? am I looking at the right reservoir? I'm not sure what to do, I sure don't want to run it out of oil. It was down to 33% by the time I got back in. Thank you very much in advance for any help or advice anyone can provide.
Jim
