[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 245302, member: 7544"] A meter is not really useful for testing your battery. It only shows voltage and even a bad battery can give a reading of 12+ volts. You need a hydrometer and/or a load tester. While the average person isn't going to own a load tester, a hydrometer is very affordable at $5-$10. Owners manual or service manual? I've been trying to find a factory service manual for mine. I've got a Sealoc manual but they try to cover too many different motors in one book so they don't cover all the details on your specific motor. It's better than nothing but not by much. [/QUOTE]
