Question #2
 
If you disconnect the oil tank and put a plug where the oil line goes into the fuel pump, do you have to unplug any sensors or does the warning alarm run off of pressure?

You have to also unhook the harness going to the oil side of the VRO pump or else it will alarm.

should be fine, but make sure you use mixed gas in the tank!!!!!!!!!!!!!! or the next thing you are going to hear is the motor locking up!!

Theres no computer on your engine. Simply unplug the harness to the VRO, cap off the oil nipple going into the VRO pump, unplug the VRO tank inside the boat, put premix in the tank, and go.

Awesome TY all sooo much, yall have no Idea how much this helps me.

I noticed I have no replys for my first question that I posted?

When I crank my motor the water stream is kinda weak and slowly gets stronger as the engine warms up, also when i rev the motor the stream doesn't change, it's almost like once the stream gets to its strongest, it doesn't change even if i rev the motor.
Does this mean I have a bad water pump?

Sounds normal to me. It can take upwards of a minute sometimes a minute and a half if it is hot and the engine is idling low for all of teh air to purge out of the engine and get to full pressure. With the small pee hole in yours it isn't unusual to not see a noticeable difference in pressure from the 8-10 it has at idle to the 15-18 it has while running on plane.
