    Well I spoke to CDI and like some of you said he wouldn’t really worried about 15.3 V. But if it was concerning they had a regulated rectifier that would hold it down somewhere around 14 14 1/2 V. So that’s what I did I order the CDI regulated rectifier.

    This seems foreign to me because I’ve had boats all my life and I could always look at the voltmeter on my Suzuki’s, or my mercury. Verrado’s end they’ve always held a voltage about 13.2 volts . I guess that’s the difference between old old motors, and the new motors that are being produced in the last 20 years. Thank you all for your replies.
