"I am new to this forum and hope someone can help...
I have a 2001 150 Optimax on a 26' tritoon.
I am getting what I beleive to be a check engine alarm that gives me a steady beep for about 10 seconds. Then the light stays lit. In a few minutes the light gos off and stays off for a while and then the alarm goes for another 10 seconds.. then off again..
This only happens occasionally. Sometimes, I can run for 30-40 minutes with out it coming on at all?
The motor seems to run fine through all of this.
However, sometimes when I idle, I get a a high temp and oil tem alarm and the engine bogs down. I shut it off, the alarms clear, I start upagain and have no furhter probelms.
Could this be shorts in the alarm system or could I have bigger problems....
Thanks"
