    For Laddies

    Saw your reply to Andy6374. I just replaced the stator and rect./reg. on a 50 H.P. because of over charging, hanging on a pontoon. This set up is still charging at 16V at full throttle. It will go down some at idle tho. It does not jump right up there, but slowly while we are cruising does go to...

I also notice that my volt meter reads around 16 volts at higher RPMs. It will come down to 14 volts when I turn the running lights on, and stay there at all speeds. Running...

It runs steady and smooth, no miss or carb malfunction, but as we cruise (1800-2000 rpms) every once in a while the needle will jump close to the top. Then it will be alright for a while and jump up again never missing a...
