Fished saturday and running to my second stop as i slowed to idle under a bridge an alarm started to sound. A fast beep. So immediately i shut the boat off and proceeded to look over the oil resevoir and lines evernything fine. I started it back and the alarm was not there. I idled a few feet and it started again. I plained the boat off and the alarm stopped. As i slowed at the next stop i set the boat back down and idled a few yards and the alarm came back on. So in neautral i reved the hot foot a couple times and the alarm stopped but back into idle without touching the throttle the alarm started back. this is in a champion 191 and i had to change the cranking battery the day before which requires complete removel of the oil reservoir, also when i first put in and started the motor it smoked A LOT. Anyone have a clue as to what this alarm means and where to start with procedure to fix the problem?

Check your fuel filter on Starboard side of engine just behind air intake. There is a purple wire connected to bottom of filter that goes to alarm that will sound when water is in fuel filter. With the cover off engine look at the front of the engine below EFI contol box ( right bottom). You should see a red LED light IF light is on Horn should be beeping due to water in fuel filter. Unscrew sender in bottom of fuel filter. and catch fuel in a clear container. look for water in fuel If it is not conpletely fulll of water just reinstall sender, pump up fuel line with bulb and try again.
