1995 OceanRunner 150EXEO alarm trolling

[jweschler]

Hello,

I have been having this problem for years and I can not seem to find out what the cause is. I get an alarm when the oil tank is half full. So I put more oil into the tank and it might go away or not. If I turned off that engine and let it sit for awhile and start it back up it might run fine. It looks to be smoking more then the starboard engine. I had the VRO pump and carbs replaced last year and it still has the alarm at trolling speeds. It gets pretty bad at times and I can not stand it any more and I need to find out what the problem is soon. Thanks for your help.

I think it is an oil alarm it will sound and then not then sound again for awhile and then stop again. I have filled the oil tank because it it half full and then the alarm goes off. or it may be full because I change tanks and it goes away. so it is not one thing but it happens mostly at trolling speeds at low idle. It has been going on since new and still can not pin point the issue or cause if I knew that I would not post this message. Thanks for any information that can lead me to the issue at hand.

It is also happens when the boat rocks back and forth it seems to be do to the boat being level and when it rocks it seems to set off the alarm. Just another note. Thanks, Joe W.
