Took my 2003 270 FV out this morning. Had a 2 beep alarm that would come on about every 4 or 5 minutes. Boat ran fine otherwise, but was wondering if anyone knows what this is indicating. Thanks

Check the drive oil reservoir

So many thing, if you do a reasearch on this forum you would find this link.

My guess would be an engine predetonation, aka knock.sensor. fuel up recently?
No, I put the boat in the water in early June with a full tank from the previous fall. Haven't added any fuel yet this season.
I had that problem once and it was the IAC valve. If you've noticed any rough idling that may be the issue. Ultimately you may end up having to find someone who can hookup a scanner and tell you the issue. Also even though your lube reservoir is full. Sometimes the float can get gooed up and it won't float. Good luck those beeps are annoying as he'll.
