If you used a Delco 10-12SI alternator with internal regulator,you may have it wired incorrectly. The #1 regulator wire should be connected to switched power so the #1 terminal is hot only when the ignition switch is on.

If the #1 regulator wire is connected to constant battery power, it will cause a constant 3-5 amp drain which will discharge the battery while the tractor is parked.

The #2 regulator wire should be connected to the alternator "bat" stud.
