I have an old Farmall 450, approximately 1956, with voltage issues. It was originally a 6 volt, now has a 12 volt battery, 12 volt generator, and a voltage resistor to the points in the distributor. I"ve recently burned up two resistors, one voltage regulator, and a set of points. With the old regulator, battery and resistor were getting 18 volts from generator. With the new regulator, the battery is only getting a modest 13 volts, but when I shut off the tractor, the battery discharges. Anyone got useful advice, short of replacing the generator and regulator with an alternator, or rewiring the whole tractor? Thanks.
