    No Oil Light/Alarm

    Hi,

    I have a 2003 Evinrude 225 HO. Recently the no oil light and alarm appear even though I have well over 1/2 a tank of oil. If I shut the engine down and restart it the alarm disappears and I can take off. THe engine appears to be getting oil as there is a noticable change in the oil level at the end of the day.

    Any idea's or suggestions???

    The no oil light could be a sensor acting up! If the water is around 40 degrees or less then the DI's can give a no oil reading if you're running the regular tcwIII oil or even the xd-50 oil. The sensor is built in,you would have to replace the whole pump assy. I would have it checked out.

    Thanks for the reply BassMiester,

    The water temps up here in the Great White North are in the low 70's right now. I have been using XD100 since I got the the engine.

    I'd have my lift pump checked, if it has one. Same thing happened to me. Lift pump was weak.

    It needs to be checked out. I really wouldn't run it till a dealer checked the oil pumps flow.JMHO
