    Can someone help me, what is this

    It is a shame that the model of the motor is not known. If it was, one could see that part in the Yamaha parts catalog.

    Need a CDI for a 1979 to 1983 120HP mercury outboard

    Interesting. Once a car is driven off the dealers lot it is "used". I would have thought the same for a CDI unit.

    Electrical Fire - 2005 Merc 60hp 4 stroke - help in diagnosing please

    On your type of electrical generation system, rectifier/regulators produce heat as they do their magic. They are shunting current to ground and that produces heat. Particularly air cooled R/R's. Not unknown for them to get so hot they harm adjacent components, with or without flames at times.

    Too big a battery harmful?

    If you run a motor at WOT you COULD possibly damage it. Same with an alternator. Just comes with the territory. I could not agree with you more about boat systems never being as reliable as automotive systems.

    Too big a battery harmful?

    Why not? That is the purpose of having an alternator. To charge up a battery, or batteries, and to provide current to electrical devices on the boat. As well as providing current to electrical components on the outboard motor itself. Talking of over tasking an alternator is similar to over...
