Though workable, 8 volt batteries are not a very good solution to starting/operating. The regulator usually needs to be adjusted to substantially higher than normal to make it work. Like 9.1 volts or more. THe issue with yours is that the contacts in the regulator that are a cutout relay, have welded together. Probably, but not an acusation, that the battery was connected negative ground for an instant. This welding has allowed the generator to be permanrntly (with that regulator) connected to the battery. This will heat components and damage wiring and drain the battery. Put a 6v battery back in it . Put on heavy 00gauge cables to both ground, and supply. Get a new regulator, and polarize the generator by touch ing a wire from the Bat term on the reg to the Arm/Gen terminal on the reg. (it does not polarize the reg, it polarizes the gen field poles. Good luck, keep us informed. JimN
