I put a new regulator on it , it charged good but the Gen light flickers dim never goes off. The brushes in the Gen throws sparks so pulled the Gen apart the armature is worn needs bearings etc. To get it going and out of my way brought a new Gen from a local electrical repair shop. Install Gen the gen light still flickers no sparks from the gen brushes. KOEO the gen are oil light are off look at the wiring diagram and go straight for the inline 3amp fuse its blown. Get it took care of the gen and oil light work KOEO gen light no longer flickers KOER. Run it start it several times check amp/voltage all's good with the world. Put my tools up go to move it the gen light flickers KOEO gen light and oil light off replace the fuse KOER Fuse is blow again....
It will blow the fuse once you start the engine. It will not blow it KOEO only KOER it may take a few seconds are 120 seconds no pattern to it. I install a amp meter to check amp draw randomly it will show 25 amps at the fuse. To make a long story short something it wrong with the fuel are oil gauge I pulled the power going to the voltage stabilizer no more blow fuses. Neither fuel are oil gauge work I think both senders are good.
A good voltage stabilizer at work it switched 7 times in two seconds.
When things go wrong it switched around 100 times in 1 sec. Pert near a dead short.
Why it does this with the engine running I dunno this was play time on my dime I pulled the power to the stabilizer if he wants the gauges to work we will spend his dimes... Its a good scope pattern of how a voltage stabilizer works... I just don't know why it goes all the ell with the engine running...
