Working on a couple of 6v positive ground generators for my tractors and need some help.
On one of my tractors [Co-op E-3], the generator works and charges with field wire grounded, but nothing otherwise. I think I need to replace the regulator, But the generator does not have a tag. I do know it is a 3 brush generator. I don't know if it is the original 3 brush generator.
How do you identify the generator to order a regulator?
How closely do you need to match a regulator to a generator?
My Moline UTU has a bad generator, also without a tag. It fails the motoring bench test. I have a good generator, a Delco 1102667, that tests and spins well to put on it. I have Googled the good generator, but all I find are panel mount regulators for mounting on a car firewall. I would like to find a saddle mount regulator.
How do you match a regulator to this generator?
Does it matter that this is a 2 brush generator when ordering a regulator?
Should I have the bad generator rebuilt (Which I am sure is not original to the tractor.)?
In the past I have sent my generators out to a local repair shop, but the last time I was less than happy with their work and what they charged. There does not seem to be anybody working on these anymore so I was hoping to try and fix this up myself.

And, if you are like me, your tractor is under cover, but it sits outside. So with every temperature change, the humidity in the air collects in the fuel tank, in the form of water.
