I think you've just had a failed battery - the do deteriorate after time.
My Haynes also states 14v.
If that battery has been "boost-charged" or fast charged at too high a rate, that can be fatal to a battery (it damages the internal plates through heat). Trickle charging over time is best.
You say you've changed the reg/rec - is the plug to it clean and tight?
