MT, from one of your other postings, it appears you have a 4 terminal VR with L B F up on top and usually on those the ARM/GEN is on the bottom or one side all by itself. They wire as folows:
BAT to load (NOT battery/starter) side of ammeter
L (Load) feeds hot battery voltage to loads like lights n ignition usually via a wire from it up to the BAT (input) terminal on the switches. On the 3 terminal (BAT ARM FLD) VR's that dont have the extra 4th L terminal, those laods are fed instead direct off the ammeters load terminal, same one that wires down to BAT on the VR.
F (Field) wires to the Gennys FLD Post
ARM/GEN (usually on bottom or other side by itself) wires to the gennys ARM post.
Once wired and BEFORE you start it, to avoid possible VR damage, POLARIZE the genny by momentarily flash jumping the VR's BAT terminal to the ARM/GEN or if that terminal is hard to get at, flash jump the BAT down to the Gennys ARM post and you should get a lil spark.
Once shes wired correct and Polarized per the above, if theres no charge work through my NOn Charging Troubleshooting Procedure URL pposted below.....
Make sure the belt is tight,,,,,,,Gennys is Polarized,,,,,, and BOTH the Genny and VR have good grounds........See below.....
