I ran the test by grounding the field coil temporarily. The "genny" is hot! The meter pegged. So, cursing the voltage regulator, quietly.
Another factor is: I did put in a 6v Optima. As the voltage regulator is mechanical, I thought the Optima would not be an issue. Was I right??
Cleaning the points tomorrow...what saint should I address in my prayers?? A powerful heathen saint would suit just as well....
