Today

[msbhammer]

Washed and flushed the motor today after taking her out yeaturday. Still have a 1/4 tank in her, might have to take her out again next week. *;D
I snapped a few pics. of that odd occurance I had with my fish finder saying "High Volts".

At idle, she reads about 13 volts at 1000 rpm's.



I then stuck her in gear, got her up to 3000 rpms and notice the volts almost at 16. Have no idea if this is normal or not. Any help would be great before hauling her off to the repair shop. I dont know to much about anything when it comes to volts.

I know you guys hate pics., but I had to snap a few whenever I'm near my baby. Just be glad I'm not posting pics. of the wifey. :o :o ;D

Is there a voltage regulator in your electrical system?...

[msbhammer]

Reel, I have no idea. Is it a cheap part to replace ? if there is one ?

[msbhammer]

Used the power washer, need to use the dish soap on the enclosure to see how clear and clean I can get the enclosure. Wish the young kid was still on here who owned it before me. Think he would like it.


Before Picture, this time last year:




After one year of having her.

Hammer, ya gots to fix the voltage problem. I'll be back home late Tuesay. Pretty sure that ya got a voltage regulator on the beast, but not positive. I'd bet BigShrimpin knows off the top of his head. Probably a 25-35 dollar part if indeed it tests bad.
