Turned on lights, bigger draw, still not as much as before. Turned them all off, everything fine, no discharge. Started tractor, fired up fine, after a few seconds, starts showing a charge, good huh? Even tested output with meter, about 6.85 at the generator but only 6.72 at battery terminal on regulator? Normal? Let it run a few minutes still charging and no heat(did run with cover off regulator so I could observe while running)seems fine. Shut off tractor and it goes right back to high discharge on ammeter! Disconnected generator terminal to stop it from discharging and was a good spark! Still drawing at generator? Dang it!What to try?
