Ok guys last year my charging system was working but it would go up to 15 16 volt some time and then back down . This spring I did my cam seals and got a alternator conversion the Wagner kit uses the two bolt holes that the a/f res bottle mounts to . My problem is that I installed it and after a while on the river the alternative came loose I got back to the dock and found one bolt only on the bracket .i put new bolt and lock washers took the boat for a 50 mile run and alternator got loose again! Got back to the dock. And one bolt was sheared off and the was loose I tried to drill out but don't have much room . So I re installed the stator and the four wires to the reg. and now I get no output. Is something I can check for thanks again

what color loc-tite did you use, and did you center the pully on the balancer
