    Mercury TT

    only if you change tha "complete" TnT assembly.. yours has different pump and motor and uses (two wire motor) relays.. tha '86 uses (three wire motor) solenoids... think CDI makes an adapter kit to use tha relays with a three wire solenoid system....

    might wanna take a look at tha icm..... it controls pretty much everything. this pretty much indicates trigger and/or icm module...... "I swapped all the CDM's with no change."

    1985 Mercury Black Max oil alarm >3k RPM

    my experience with tha module is very limited.. i can't remember any motor i've had that we retained a functioning oiler.. not because of failure of tha oiler it was because we usually had "0" knowledge of tha motors "TRUE" past.. ie: hours, how it was maintained, ever been over heated etc...

    1985 Mercury Black Max oil alarm >3k RPM

    your motor has a 16 amp system with separate reg and rectifier.. tha 40 amp stuff started in '89 with a single water cooled reg/rect... that changed to tha two 20 amp reg/rect in '92... tha oiler information pretty much remains tha same thru all tha years up until '02..... tha oiler module...

    Mariner 150hp 2.5L Overheating – Need Advice

    'bout 4 (3 @ very min.) ta 7/8 at idle.. 14 to 'bout 21 max at speed.. preferably 14/18.. gauge will show actual pressure (pump condition), any type blockage and how tha poppet is working.. theses are my opinion only and worked for many years.. you may have one of those "ya gotta be here" ta do...
