I have a 18'6 riviera with a 98 115hp evinrude. I have run the boat a few times in the last week. It started a periodic beeping from the throttle controls and never stopped. Got the boat home fired it up to flush it and it wasn't beeping. It seems like its only when its been running for a little while. I premix my fuel. So it can't be a low oil alarm.... Any ideas? obviously not good whatever it is and I just want to make sure Im not causing damage to it. Low voltage?
thx

Re: Beeping from my throttle control........

Overheat? There's an alarm on my 140hp Evinrude that buzzes when the engine is hot. Won't do it at home of the muffs because it's cooled off at that point. I've started a thread asking for advice on which parts to check first because I experienced the same issue just yesterday. Now, my engine is older than yours, so don't assume I'm right and hopefully someone wiser than me will weigh in.

Do you have the wires disconnected from both the oil tank and the vro seeing your mixing your fuel??
