Thanks for the reply, the beeping was the low oil sensor. i disconnected one of the blue wires it stopped beeping continuously. I ran it with water hose hooked up and had blue oil smoke coming from exhaust.
I took it to lake today, it is not running very well, I stopped by a boat dealer after loading up on my way home, he said it needed a tune up to get all 3 carbs. adjusted, the linkage seemed ok. The guy i bought the boat from last fall (a dealer) put a new set of champion plugs it, the boat mechanic said today they must go and put in another brand.
i will have to take it some where for the tune up i guess. i live 40 miles south of Port Clinton near Willard. do you know a good and reasonable boat mechanic in the area. i am retired and on a fixed income so i must do what i can when i can. I am NOT COMPLAINING just the way it is.
Any advise would be appreciated.

Thanks, Dennis
