    I know this may sound stupid,but make certain you've got good grounds,block to frame,and frame to battery. At 16v you are definitely over charging. Hank

    The voltage should be the same anywhere in the system that isn't on a resisted wire. Check for high amperage too, though 16 volts is too high. The comment about the battery is a good point, an alternator will screw up its charge rate if the battery is going away.
