Hey guys,
Thanks for any help in advance. I have a new to me 2000 formula 280ss w/ fairly new (2006) 350mag horizons (OW359452) about 250 hrs. I just bought this boat and ran it fine for about 2 hrs and then got alarm horns. Was cruising around for about 45 min then idleing around for about 2 hrs. When i went to give it gas and cruise again I got a solid alarm horn. I then idled back to marina w/ 2 beeps every minute. Things that have been changed recently before I bought the boat by a marina mechanic:
Couplers and r-bar mounts for both engines
waterpump inpellars for both engines
Cool fuel housing both engines
Shift Cables
Batteries
In addition the outdrive oil looks low which I will be filling up. I have attached the code history that I just pulled from the engine, and I have downloaded manuals 31 and 33. The boat is also presently out of the water being bottom painted. I went to run the engine on muffs today but it seems that I have 2 through hull fittings (no shut off valve)for water intake in addition to the intake on the outdrive. Because I was unsure if the water intake of the outdrive would just flow out the hull in take I didn't run the engine.
Any suggestions?
Thx
Brian
