I finally had it - I went to town and bought an alternator for the 8n.
I took the advice of some folks and drove over to the guy that rebuilt the generator and bought a regulator from him. It was the exact same China junk I have been buying everywhere else. It worked for all of two minutes and then started messing up. I was over it. The alternator was three dollars more than the regulator I wasted money on earlier in the day. I have NO machinery that is 6 volt anymore.
Here is my question - how strong are those 12-6 volt reducers? The lights on this tractor are only a year old and I am hoping that I can put a reducer in front of the light switch and use my 6 volt lights. I have two front and one rear light.
I happened to have one laying around so that is what I am going to do for the coil. When it eventually dies I will go with a 12 volt coil. It would be really swell if one reducer would do everything, but as I recall you have to have one of those for every "appliance", right?
