[b:3f40d82053]Problem[/b:3f40d82053]: Tractor will not crank when volt meter is installed. Voltage at the solenoid is 8v. When taken out voltage goes to 12v and tractor will crank.
[b:3f40d82053]Installation[/b:3f40d82053]: Restoring a 1952 MF 135 w perkins 3 cyl diesel.
Bought all new, voltage regulator, volt meter, rewired completely using "Yesterday's" tractor shop manual. Swapped out 2nd volt meter with no difference. Volt meter is in the battery to regulator wiring per diagram.
[b:3f40d82053]Question[/b:3f40d82053]: Do I have a faulty regulator even though it is new?
