Ok so my dad has a 16.5 ft crestliner deep v w a 75hp mercury outboard. We took it out this year and his low oil warning beep kept going off even tho it had plenty of oil in it. My mom did some research online and found info talking about some magnet that might have been jarred loose from running that is giving the false alarm. we found a new oil tank for cheap but has anyone encountered this or do you think it could be something different? thanks
