"For the past 3 weeks I have had the low oil sensor going off on my Optimax. There was still smoke when I started it up and both oil tanks are full. I assumed the oil level sensor was bad and so did the mechanic so we replaced the sensor. I took it out yesterday and ran for about five minutes, shut it off and then started it again. When I started it the second time the alarm went off again. I am now concerned as there is minimal smoke when starting it (about as much smoke you get from exhaling a cigarette). Could this be the module that is bad? How can I cut off the oil injection system and mix the oil myself? is this ok to do until I get to the root of the problem?

Thanks in advance for any help with this!"

This sounds like an outboard and not a Mercruiser I/O. Post in the outboard section.
