Ok so I finally after a week of cussing got the M converted. I fired it up and the ammeter ran high for about 30 seconds and then backed off to just above charging, which I would call normal since it's charging the battery after the start etc. Anyway I was warming it up and putting the bucket back on the loader. I walked around to check on it and the ammeter was pegged! The batter looked to be boiling over as well.
