Quite so. If anybody can point me in the direction of a wiring diagram for the alarm circuit, I'd be grateful. I think, whatever the circuit in...
I quite agree - having blown up an engine partly due to a faulty temperature sensor, checking fluids etc before heading off into the wild blue...
Thanks for that. No, I haven't tried it with oil, but it's not giving me the behaviour I'd expect without oil, so I think the sensor electronics...
Hello, I have an OMC type remote oil tank that has some sort of level sensor inside it; [ATTACH] It looks like a simple on/off level sensor,...
Thanks for your continued help with this :) I can certainly see the sense in pre-mixing to 100:1 to avoid damage - how would a retro-fitted pump...
Hello all, thanks for your replies! I've got a Johnson V4 115hp - a J115TLCIM. Does that mean the VRO tank actually has a sensor in it,...
Having done a bit more research, apparently OMC/Johnson/Evinrude started fitting a system called VRO (Variable Ratio Oiling) to their engines...

Hello, I'm looking for some advice on wiring up an ammeter on my boat. [IMG] I have two batteries in parallel that are connected to...
Hello both, thanks very much for your advice. Based on this calculator, I reckon AWG 3 would result in about a 0.5V drop at the starter...
Hello, I'm currently plumbing in a Johnson v4 115hp 2-stroke outboard and need to replace the starter cables. At present, they're about...
Hello, I thought an update was due on this job - sorry if this counts as resurrecting an old thread... I got hold of a 7/8 die-nut and...
Oops - misread that! Thanks...
Hello all, thanks again for your help with this - quite a few options to consider now, thanks :) I can get a 7/16 UNF nut here in the...
Hello both, thanks for your advice - I see the problem with using a die - I was hoping that cleaning as much of thread as I could we be good...
