I did the re-polarize trick in the begining, No change. The VReg was new 10+ years ago when I rebuilt the 8N. It has never charged more than 3-4 amps. The battery is 2 years old,the 4th one in 10+ years. I was thinking maybe I was never charging the battery enough and it was getting weaker every time I used the tractor to where it finally would not work at all. I thought the VReg controlled the amount of charge to the battery, IE the weaker the battery, the more the charge. This one stays 3-4 Amps no matter the condition of the battery. I ran the 8N 2 hours at 3/4 throttle Sat and the % of battery charge hardly changed at all.
