Default 300 X beeps 4 X's

HELP>>>>>>

one of my my 300's continually beeps 4 times .........

it does it at first start up, and while running at various speeds and times.

it can run for 20 minutes and then beeps 4 X'sor every 5 minutes.

5 gallon oil tanks are full as well as the reserve.

varies from 8-12 lbs. water pressure while running.

engine temps. are from 140 to 150 degrees.

12 volts plus.

IDEAS????

Thanks......................

4 beeps is oil.....1st check which is the motor that is beepeing, then look on top of the oil tank on the motor you will see the sensor which drops in the tank, swap them over on each motor then see if it still beeps...if it doesnt, the oil sensor is bad just get a new one and its a $20.00 fix if not then swap the complete tank, sometimes the tanks magnet on the bottom of the go bad.....

4 beeps is also water in the gas. Drain the water separater on a 300x or the vapor canister on a 300xs. If the oil tank on the motor is full then water is most likely the problem.

Remember to tighten the inside oil bottle caps very tight, or else the oil will only draw from the little bottle at the motor.
