"first--premix gas 50/1 until prob has been corrected to protect engine.,bleed fuel system/drain carbs, to ensure mix gets to carbs.Next,ck oil line for kinks,if oil primer bulb is old,brittle replace entire line.Check/clean/replace filter screen in oil tank...oil tanks are seldom cleaned as they should be,this is a common source of clogging and prob's.Next,check all oil line connections,they must be air tight.Test run,horn still going off,unplug at vro pump,if horn quits..replace VRO pump,and get a manual to follow purge and installation guides.If horn continues,unplug wires to oil tank,if it quits,oil sender in tank is bad.Replace.If vro,and tank sender wires are disc,and horn continues,--bad system ck guage.This checking procedure,can be reversed to start w/the electronics first,but we find ALOT of clogged filter screens,so thats why i put it first.BE sure to premix gas,and purge lines and carbs while doing testing..so as to get oiled gas,to engine."

First off you should start your own thread with all your motor information and your problem. By the sounds of it your motor is probably done. You should of been checking it out right away when you heard the alarm not just thought it's just a faulty sensor and kept driving. Probably a very expensive mistake.

Thanks for the reply do you think that the motor can be repaired

Everything can be fixed. You need to find out what's going on first. Might be better off just getting another motor.

Why yes , it can be repaired.------Might be cheaper to find another motor.------From the sound of it it will be expensive to fix !!
