I'm getting this out of the way right at the beginning.. NO, I am NOT putting an alternator on it so don't bother suggesting it.
Ok, so I just completely rewired my new-to-me 140. It charges again and the lights work! I checked the voltage at the battery with my digital meter and it read 15.0 with the tractor at full throttle after it had been running for about 3 hours (at full throttle the entire time, it's my lawn mower). At idle it shows 14.7. Yeah, it's a little high, but should I even bother messing with it? How exactly can I back it down just a touch? Is there a good written procedure for adjustment?
