I've read as many posts as I could about similar issues, but didn't find the answer to my question.
On my way in Sunday morning I got the dreaded beeps and 'critical' message on my smartcraft gauge. I immediately shut it down, did some inspecting and called for a tow. Remote tank 1/2 full and engine take 100% full. Now after reading many posts, I probably didn't actually need a tow and could have driven 30 minutes back to the port. Regardless, my question is: If the engine tank is 100% full (as it should be with oil in the remote tank), is there anything downstream from this tank that can go wrong (oil related)? In other words, is there any threat of improper engine lubrication when the engine tank has sufficient oil in it?
If no, then the obvious solution to the problem appears to be engine tank (8M0064075) replacement.
Thanks!
