Hello! I hate to have to be here, but I know from previous experiences, this it THE place to go for expert help.
I have twin 115's on my center console which unfortunately found themselves at the bottom of the bayou I live on.
I've worked on submerged engines before (I'm a certified A&P license holder for aircraft and have worked on cars and boats all 54 years of my life).
One engine I have working perfectly. The other engine is what concerns me.
As soon as I turn the key on, a steady alarm starts and will not go off. I'm getting all my lights coming on and staying on.
The engine actually starts and idles well, but I'm concerned about running the engines to complete the oil changes necessary to flush the inside of the engines.
What would cause a steady alarm even when the engine is running and is it safe to run the engine with it sounding?
Thanks for any help you can give me.
Jim
