I've noticed an issue with the oil pressure gauge the last 2 times I've had the boat out. It appears to work fine, but everyone once in a while the gauge will stop working, as in drop to zero, then bounce back to working fine a few minutes later. It works fine about 90% of the time. I'm assuming that the connection to the gauge must be loose as there are no alarms and I've checked the oil and it is full. Other than the gauge, the boat runs perfect. I checked the connection with my hand to the back of the gauge and it appears to be tight, but I don't know where to check on the engine to make sure the connection is tight there as well. The boat is brand new, 2011 185 sport w/ 4.3 and alpha 1, so I could take it back to the dealer but I'm approaching the 20 hour mark and would like to wait till then were i'll have the oil changed and the gauge repaired if needed. Just a little nervous since it's the oil pressure gauge, not the gas gauge lol. Thanks all
