Hi all my boat has been in the water now for a few weeks and I'm having a bit of trouble starting the engine !
I have a 85 HP v4 Johnson J85TlCSA the problem I am having is this .. I have a 71amp maintance free battery ! but this isn't turning the starter very fast but it does start after a few goes . I am going to change the battery and install two through a change over switch when I'm running the volt gauge shows 16 volts what charging system has my engine as I read somewhere "maitainance free battery's damage the rectifier" how and why I don't know
Any help getting me going would be great thanks
