So my outboard is a 1978 Johnson 140. Came with the smaller standard rectifier. Well in my figuring out the tach issue I found my rectifier basically exploded. I swapped on one from my buddies 90 and it did fix the tach, but when running I didnt see much if any charging voltage?
And if I wanted could I toss on a 35amp rectifier?I will just buy the same part and replace if not, But I do have the a 35amp rectifier from a 1984 parts 140 in the garage. The kind that bolts to the top of the block. Can I just swap it on with my current stator? Is it possible it would work, but just not put out the full the 35amp output? I saw one other post of someone having done this and said it worked for them but I wanted to ask if anyone else had done it.
