Re: charging device

My manual only goes to 84 but indicates if there is electric start there is a charging circuit.<br /> Also the stator has 4 leads 1 red,1 blue for<br />ignition,and 2 yellow for charging.You would need to add a rectifier.If electric start and hooked to a battery measure the voltage across the<br />terminals with the motor running.Should be about 14+volts.<br />I think it would be pretty pricey to add a charging system.

I have an 89 35 hp Merc. It has a charging system. If I could just get the tach straightened out I'd be happy.
