"Hello All,

I have let my boat sit for a few months and believe my problem to be condensation in the fuel tank. It does the 4 beeps every 2 minutes on the port engine. Oil consumption seems to be fine and the onboard tank is full. I have replaced the fuel filters on the motors in the hopes of stopping the beeps, but it didn't help.

Besides putting fresh fuel in it is there something else I should do? Is there a sensor in the VST and should I loosen the drain screw on the front and drain it? Is there a reset procedure that I should do since replacing the fuel filters, which will stop the alarm from sounding?

Any suggestions to resolve this issue without taking it to a shop would be appreciated.

Thanks,
John"

I am reading the manual for the optimax and the 4 beeps are for 2 reasons.
1. Low Oil.
2. Water in fuel.
The only thing I can suggest is resetting the alarm module. Do you know how to do that?
