Re: 1991 225 blowing rectifiers

I've had my share of 'crazy' engines in my time with similar symptoms like yours. One part that unfortunately 'lack' specifications is the fly-wheel. Testing is close to impossible, but it is one way that works.
Attach a steel ball (from a roller bearing) to a fishing scale. Best is one that used for 'small fish', less than 1 lb.
Compare the force needed to get the ball loose from the magnets with a 'fresh' flywheel. Dropping a flywheel on the floor or hitting with a hammer may make it loose magnetism.
There are unfortunately no specs given, but the only way to test them.
