We just bought a rebuilt 1992 75 HP mercuey outboard. (Haven't even put it in the water yet). Bought from a dealer, took it for a test drive (On one of their boats) and it ran great. We had 3 days after we bought it, to have it checked out and return if needed. We did this, and it tested fine, just needed new tilt and trim breakers. Now we have an alarm going off, and the motor will crank and run fine but will not shut off.
1) we assume that either a wire is on wrong or we need to ajust our controls. Thought that is why it will not shut off unless you choke it.....
2) The alarm sounds like the water pump alarm. However this is brand new, and has been tested to work fine. We've hooked it up to ears and it's fine.
Any clue as to what might be going on? Could the alarm be linked to the fact that it will not shut off? A wiring issues? It has to be something simple, please advise.
Thanks
the motor will not shut off by the key. Have to choke it to get it to shut off
