I just took possession of my 1997 230BR and had it running like a charm. I do have a few things that I have to take care of and one of them is the the voltmeter is reading off the dial. 16V. This is at all Rpm. When I trim the drive the voltmeter bounces and then goes back up to the 16v range.
The battery is a group 24 of unknown condition and has an in service date of April 2010. I just bought another battery to replace it. It's a Costco group 24 deep cycle that meet all the requirements and more according to the mercruiser manual.
Question - could the condition of the battery be causing the voltage to be high or might I be looking at a new alternator?
Thanks for any advice.
