i just purchased a 03 xl700...runs great, however, the oil light doesn't blink at start-up like it should. checked the two connections...they look good w/ no corrosion or play. any ideas on trouble shooting would be great...i'd hate to damage the engine. the oil resevior is almost full!

the oil light does not mean it isnt getting oil. it just is a senser in the tank to let you know when to add. you can unplug the senser if the light comes on the senser is bad. if it does not the dash needs replaced.You can run the boat with premixing fuel and watch your tank to see if is using oil. it may smoke more and foul some plugs. the best way to go is remove the oil pump with a block off kit and just premix.
