Re: over chargeing

If it has a regulator, its likely the problem. If it has only a rectifier, its normal...

I have the same engine. Does the same thing. This is normal, as the engine does not have a regulator on it, rectifier only. Have not had any battery issues over the years. Run the radio a lot and keep an eye on the water level just the same.
