Can someone tell me what kind of voltage I should get coming out of the rectifier to the battery? I just bought a new battery and installed a radio shack rectifier because I suspected mine was bad after testing it. I replaced the stator a year ago along with the switchbox. I am getting up to 16 volts on my multimeter on the positive post(battery post) on my new rectifier and 16 volts on my volts meter in the dash. When I initially test the charge it is around 12.75 and then will go up to 16 volts and it will vary in between as I throttle the engine speed. My concern is I just installed a new battery and new rectifier and can this high charging voltage burn out my newer stator or switchbox? Not even sure if I should be concerned?
