Default Re: charging system

Veeder, do you have a volt gauge or a voltage readout on your gps? IF it is reading 12.5 or above while the engine is running and drops when you shut it down, then the charging system is ok. I had an 83 150 on my boat when I bought it and it put out 16 to 17 volts when charging, but the amperage was very low. My 94 puts out 14.2 when running 1000 rpm or greater, but with more amps. Hopefully it is just a tach problem.
