If you guys can tell me why the Check Engine Light is illuminated on my neighbor's Toyota, I'll tell you why your PCM is beeping.

It's pretty much a futile effort to try and diagnose these things sans Diacom software, Rinda Scanner, or SmartCraft gauges.

It could be an IAC, but I strongly suggest getting it scanned or acquiring a scanner. It's the best $500 you will spend on your boat. Split/share the costs with your neighbors/buddies, or rent your scanner out to recoup costs.

One of the worst things you can do now is keep running with an active fault / alarm. Could be water pressure low and or sensor shorted or bad. A scan without a doubt is needed. IAC is a huge problem for most MPI Merc as well. Again a diagnostic scan will determine or least point you in the direction of what area needs attention.
