Buddy of mine just brought the boat home. Hooked a new battery up to it and turned the key to start the motor and there's a Beeep Beeep Beeep Beeep Beeep never ending just with the key in the on position. Got the motor started and running at idle speeds. Beeping still continued. Its and EfI and the reservoir is full. Motor was smoking quite a bit at start up, assuming this was just burning the fogging oil out. Smoked normally there after.

Took it out today. Kept beeping the whole time. Stopped at sandbar to check a few things and noticed the oil was thin. Smelled it and it smelled like it had gas in it? Any ideas on that. We did put oil in the gas tank to make sure not to blow it up.

Is there a Float somewhere in the oil res of this motor? And would the alarm go off with just turning the key to the on position without starting?
