[QUOTE="onthewater102, post: 481622, member: 13702"] Try the heat sink compound, it's cheap, plus it is possible you're not getting sufficient contact between the backside of the rectifier and the block to dissipate the heat, but I think you're more likely seeing an intermittent issue with the stator taking out the rectifier(s) as you've suspected. There is an updated rectifier that costs 3x-4x what the OEM replacement one for that motor costs, but it's got a voltage regulator built in to protect digital devices you may have in the boat (such as a fishfinder or digital controlled trolling motor.)
