First time posting.
I have read through many of the other threads and could not find a solution.
Serial Number - BAEJ1200019.
Situation:Boat and motor recently purchased at an auction.
Boat and motor had sat outside in the Pacifism Northwest for 4 years.
Honda mechanic went through the motor and replaced the water pump
Ran find on the muffs.
When in the lake at idle after about 4 - 5 minutes the alarm sounded - Short intermittent beeps.
When restarted and immediately taken up to cruising speed the alarm did not sound.
When then taken down to idle the alarm would sound after 4 or so minutes.
When taken back up to cruising speed the alarm would not stop beeping.
The boat had other issues and we took it to a boat mechanic, not a Honda mechanic, who has worked on my various boats for over 25 years.
When they ran it with the muffs on, no alarm.
When lake tested the alarm came on at idle after 4 or so minutes.
There has never been any sign of water in the separator so we replaced the whole unit, sensor and all. - no alarm with the muffs on.
Back to the lake, alarm sounded after 4 or so minutes.
The boat has voltage gauge (seems to be charging fine) and only a 2 light key switch indicator. Neither lights up when the alarm is sounding.
All research we have done indicates that when there is a short intermittent alarm, the only issue is water in the separator.
The mechanic has noted that the port side exhaust manifold seems extremely hot compared to the starboard side yet the overheating light does not come on,
Does anyone have any solutions or suggestion?
Thank you
