Hi All, i own a BW Outrage 18" with an evinrude engine 140 HP VRO.

I live close to an italian lake and i use the boat all year mostly for fishing.

Since 2 years i have an issue with the sound from horn ( from sound frequency should be "no oil" warning) occurring only in winter with very cold weather.

it's strange.....when i switch on the engine it regularly starts then after a few time the horn starts to sound and the engine suddenly turn off.

Once the weather gets warmer the issue disappears.

Have you any idea of which could be the cause ? might be a the VRO pump mulfunction with very cold air (0° or 2° degrees)?


Thanks in advance for any support on this subject
Regards

Alessandro
