I have a TO-30 1950 that has allways had a charging problem. I installed a new generator and voltage reg last year but I still don't feel that it is charging properly. It is wired according to the manual. An Amp meter has been installed between the neg batt lead and the L on the volt reg. When running I have never seen any appreicable current flowing to the batt. Should I see a 5 or 10 amp charge if it is operating properly? Should the volt reg be adjusted or should it just work after you install a new one? I used to have old cars that when you replaced a volt reg you had to touch the batt terminal to the field or some such thing does this require something like that? When the tractor is running I can disconnect the positive ground and it dies. The belt is very loose, does it need to be fairly tight? Any suggestions would be appriacted.
