In Topic: Oil light on and beeping noise

20 March 2007 - 02:29 PM

The same thing is always happening to my speedster. I reckon the sensor is wonky. Have you tried holding down the button for about 5 seconds to clear it? Thats the button you press to stop the beeping - the oil warning button.

When you say you filled the oil, which tank are you talking about. There is the large tank that holds about three gallons then there is the smaller tank forward and under the flywheel on top of the engine. This smaller tank is where the float sensor is. You must fill the smaller tank or the warning will not stop. I am assuming your engine is similar to mine, I have a 2001 Merc V6 240 HP.

OK, first off, this is a two stroke engine so oil and fuel on the plugs does not mean the engine in "shut" ( I think he meant shot) as stated above. These are both required to run these things. The next step in trouble-shooting is to check for spark. The way I do it is I have a good, non-fouled spark plug, a wire with aligator clips connected to each end. Connect one end to the part of the plug that is threaded and scews into the engine, take the other end and clip it to a suitable ground via the engine or directly to the battery negative. Install the plug wire onto the spark plug. Turn the engine over and check for spark between the electrodes. Repeat this step on all six plugs wires. If no spark check fuses under the dry storage compartment in front of the drivers console. If you have spark then either its not getting fuel (but it sounds like it is) or its flooded with fuel. Removed all six plugs and blow all the fuel out of the cylinders with compressed air. Install freash dry plugs and it should start.

Try that and let em know.
