Had this motor on a used Skeeter I bought a couple years ago, and I've been battling battery/charging troubles non-stop since I've owned it. Basically the battery won't charge. We've put a new stator in, tried a two battery system, diff. batteries, and just recently put in a new rectifier. I thought we finally had the problem fixed after putting in the new rectifier, because the output on the motor went from a max of about 12.6v to a little over 14 when I tested it in the driveway, but after a day on the water, the battery gradually wound down, and eventually went dead. Tested it again on the water, and it was only charging to a little over 12 again. Huh??
? Anyway, brought it home, charged the battery, and tested it again in the driveway today. It was charging at a little over 14 again. I don't get it. Any clues on what to check or look for? Thanks much.
