60 acre hillside
Member
A neighbor thought he had generator problems with a 24 volt Caterpillar. I grounded the field just for a moment and observed the amp gauge, as I have done on numerous Delco Remy and Ford generators in the past. His rebuilder told him I should have never done that. Why did he say that?
These old Delco generators grounded the field on the high charging position. I once put a permanent wire grounding the field on an old Ford tractor that was only used for light chores and it charged for years.
Was the rebuilder just upset because I tried to help out?
