I agree with Randall about the numbers being off. Make sure your
volt meter is on DC and not AC. A dead battery is about 10V and the
max one should charge at is about 14.5V. A battery charging at 48V
is one that will go boom really fast.<br>

<div>I got the tr-3 miss pretty well taken care of. I think it
might have been bad gas from sitting all winter plus very low
battery. I also took it out and gave it a good thrashing with
fresh gas. LOL</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>However I've checked the battery across the posts and am
finding .51 volts. From battery neg. post to coil + is 48.
While idling the alternator was charging around 19. (just
went to negative ground and added alternator over the winter.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm wondering if the regulator on the new alternator is
working. Will the high battery voltage damage anything? Or
do I simply need to watch that the battery water stays up?</div>
