Hi all, hoping to get some advice here. I've looked at all the threads on here about charging issues. I know you want to pull you readings right from the battery. Which I've done and it don't appear the motor is charging the batteries. The readings I get after the motor has been started stay the same as the battery before start, maybe just a bit less, and the battery is charged before hand, and it is new. I do have trim tilt, so yes the reg/ rec is water cooled. My tach works fine and it dosen't appear to be off as to the speed of the motor. It is winter here so the motor/ boat is in storage and finding the readings from the reg/ rec will have to wait. I also know some have stated the motor has to be run a bit before it will charge. Even with this last summer it never appeared to charge. The motor runs great, only issue I've had is at F/T it would hesitate a bit after running, but I found this to be a fuel issue as when I'd squeeze the primer bulb it would solve that problem and I know why so I will fix that when I pull it out of storage. Any thoughts on why its not charging? I'm sure it has to do with the reg/rec or stator but it seems odd the motor runs fine and tach works for this to be the cause.
