    Another VRO Question

    I did and they were good no leaks. I decided I had enough and I just ordered a brand new OEM vro pump. This thing is 21 years old and someone on another forum said the oil pump is probably shot even though I rebuilt the air and fuel diaphragm section I'll see what happens!

    VRO System Check Light/Horn Question

    Hey guys quick question. Running a 2000 150 Ocean Pro. Every 2 to 2.5 minutes the no oil light comes on and the horn sounds for approximately 8 seconds and then goes off but the no oil light stays on.

    Help! I I'm at a total loss on what to do next I've been troubleshooting this engine for 4 weeks now.
