Chad, Seems like I already provided you this info a time or two but here it is one more time,,,its taken from my Troubleshooting Procedure Para 5, see below:::
5. a) VOLTAGE REGULATOR SYSTEM: With the tractor running, temporarily ground the Gens Field post to case. If she charges then but NOT otherwise, the VR may be bad, or a wires missing from VR"s Field post to the Field terminal on the VR, or the VR isn’t well grounded.
Now to your specific questions:
QUESTION I then ran wide open and it was up to 0 and it would go above every so often. so with that said I am thinking if the vr was really junk the amp gage would be below 0 amps all the time?
NOT SO: Its a matter of HOW BAD OR HOW MUCH OUT OF ADJUSTMENT... Yes it may well be bad or else it needs adjusted, try Jims adjustments or else go to Jim at Agri Services in New York www.wiringharnesses.com and get a new VR
QUESTION: DO you think it just needs adjusting seems like at full throtal it would be 5-8 amps easy? and at idle possible 0 amps?
NO I think its bad butttttttt try Jims adjustment first n if that dont fix it see above
NOTE: The help we all work so hard to provide requires the posteR have some basic mechanical skills and experience buttttttttttttt if thats not the case take it to a professional rebuilder to get it fixed.. ITS IMPOSIBLE TO PUT IN A PARAGRAPH HERE WHAT IT TAKES ENTIRE BOOKS TO EXPLAIN AND/OR EXPERIENCE
God Bless n good wishes let us all know what happens

Up till then, this tractor had been running a corn grinder and pulling a trailer. It had new unfilled rear tires and no wheel weights. The garden was already sprouting when we hooked up the mid-mount shovel cultivators to the Pony. The seed bed was soft enough that the rear end would spin and slowly work its way to the downhill side of the gardens slight incline. From this, we learned our lesson sinc
