Default Mercury 175 Sport Jet Oil Warnig

Im getting an oil warning horn, that is caused by the sensor that
monitors the drive shaft rotation, in which the plastic worm gear has
failed. (a mercury known problem, SVC. BLTN. 2000-10) I've got a
scheduled appointment at the dealer, but its not for another month away.
I was told by Merc that I could run the boat, if I premixed the gas and
oil. I was also told by merc that I could disable the warning buzzer but
clipping the wire atop the secondary oil tank on the motor. (not the 2
gallon reserve tank) I dont believe this, as all that sensor monitors is
oil level, and the secondary tank has oil in it. I believe there is a
secondary sensor that monitors the drive shaft rpm's, and thats what I
need to clip. Can anyone point me in the right direction here? Larry?
