    oil alarm or fuel

    I have a 2006 optimax 175 im getting a 4 beep alarm every 2 min , if i replace the fuel / water filter and the alarm does not quit , can i jump the 2 wires that connect to the oil tank mounted on the engine ,and if the the alarm stops , is the problem in the tank itself with the magnet . Can i repair it or should i replace it

    Welcome Ryan, If I lived in the same city as European Marine, I would just run it by Don's shop.
