I did a quick search and all I could find is the merc has 2 alarms. Temp and oil. The oil alarm is know to give a false alarm as the oil float gets a leak and sinks. I'd have a marine mechanic look at it.

No boat, back in the suds.

it is peeing but possible the maybe the thermostat not working properly. but the middle cylinder running way to lean all of a sudden makes me alittle worried.
