Does my 1986 30hp electric start outboard have an alternator? If not how do I keep the cranking battery charged? Also does anybody know how many pounds the flywheel nut must be cranked to?
it is hard for me to say if it had a gen on it but i am sure you could buy one for it if there is one on there it would have a belt going from the flywheel to the gen
Dan,If you have two wires, one red and one<br />black,running from the motor to the battery,you probably have a charging system.On a 30 HP it probably puts out 4 Amps or less.<br />DHP
DHP Do you know what it might look like on the motor? I just bought the outboard and I dont have controls or a battery for it. I switched from tiller to remote so i have no clue.
