I have twin 150 Optis.
I had a low oil alarm go off and filled the tank. Smart craft guage continues to read 100% reserve, but counts down as we run. Have bled the onboard tank to ensure it is full and no air. Now, i am getting a Faulty Injector alarm. I have read all the posts on this SMartcraft alarm, but the answers dont seem to be clear. Are these alarms related? Does the faulty injector refer to air or gas? I do have water seperators on my fuel lines. should those be changed. It seems the answers have been broad. Can anyone narrow it down?

Those are separate alarms, not related at all..... do you have the actual remote oil tank level sensors or just the stock one on the engines? It will not just say "injector" it will have told you what type, like "A direct injector has stopped working electrically". Water in the fuel will be picked up in the fuel filter sensor and displayed as "water in fuel". Those filters should be changed every year.
