I have a 2 stroke 2001 150hp Mercury. The main oil reservoir is full but the reservoir on the motor has stopped filling. I've traced all the lines and nothing is loose or leaking. Where do I start looking for the problem?

Check the sensor in the tank on the motor. That is what sends the signal to the fill pump.

On Mercs, the remote oil tank is pressurized to fill the engine tank. Remove the cap on the engine reservoir, while it is running. The engine reservoir should start to fill up. If not filling, check boat reservoir cap for seal. If that is good, start inspecting check valves for clogging.
