Question
I,m not sure previous message went. I have 1988 40hp Evinrude. Cranks, idle, low speed fine. Wide open throttle, engine runs fine, but horn comes on. intermittent. Looks like adequate water comming out at all times. If i throttle back to low speed or idle, horn stops. Got any ideas??????????????????????? thanks randy horner e mail XXXXX@XXXXXX.XXX

Accepted Answer
If your boat is equiped with a water psi. gauge at wide open throttle you should have close to 20 lbs. of water psi. If you have low water psi. you will need to change the water pump impeller in the lower unit and inspect the water pump housing,gasket,and wear plate.
