Ok... I just cant figure this out. How do I get to the plugs on the 200 hp Optimax? 2003 185 Utopia. I can get #1 and # 3 out. Maybe #5. I have no idea how best to get to the port side plugs. Do I need to remove that entire bracket holding the fuel lines? Am I making this hard? Im trying to do a compression check. Im about to give up. Getting the plugs out is one thing, getting the plug in for the gauge and getting it tight is another.

My problem is that Im getting 4 beeps every 2 minutes. I was also getting a long horn after a few minutes at high rpm, but that seems to have gone away after bleeding the oil reservoir, tightening the caps, and draining the fuel/water separator. What else can I check because of the 4 beeps?

Ive been using a IR thermometer on the cylinder heads. Ive noticed the port side reads about 120 degress, but the starboard side is pushing 135. I did this because the thermostick mark I made melted at 163. Not sure if I really have a problem or just digging into this too deep. The 4 beeps come on even before I start the engine.
