I have an 86 944. Mine does the same as you describe. If the volt meter is not reading below 12 Volts while operating the vehicle, the battery is not being dicharged. This has not caused a problem for me in 18 months. A properly operating voltage regulator will decrease output, this is to prevent overcharging/boiling the batery.
