Duffman, thanks for the response. It is an I/O Mercruiser 470 80'. It is a single wire alternator with a single wire going back to the batts. By backflow I just meant running back to the batteries.
When I would reconnect the wire to the alternator it would pop the reset switch on the motor, and I lose all my power. However when I disconnect the wire completely and hit the reset switch again I get power and the engine will turn over. Is there a ground or something I am missing?
