I am completely new to boating - I bought a 1996 Nitro from a coworker. The boat has a 150 Merc 6 cy. This boat has been sitting since 2002 in a garage. I took the boat to have it checked out; new water pump impeller, carb kit, and spark plugs, ($710 worth). Service tech told me that the alarm will not stop sounding, bla, bla, bla. I searched your forum, there seem to be many posts concerning this issue, but there have been a variety of answers.
Problem - as soon as the key is turned on the alarm beebs a constant beeeep and never stops. The engine starts great, runs great etc... beep never stops. There is oil in both tanks and I think the oil supply tank is working, (smoked allot). The mechanic recommended that I mix oil with my gas in the tank to 50:1, so I did. Couldn't be overheating - it beeps right off the bat. Does anyone have the Oil Injection Trouble Shooting Chart for this engine? This was referenced for diagnosing a "constant beep" on a diagram that I read earlier.
