I bought a tractor that had a lot of problems and have most worked out but I have one that is driving me up the wall. I have a 350 diesel Farmall and will not hold a charge. I had the same problem when I bought it and the voltage regulator was feeding back and not going to the generator.I PUT A NEW VOLTAGE REGULATOR ON AND it worked fine for a while but then it would run the battery down in an hour and the amp gauge WOULD show nothing, and you can the cables off the battery and it continues to run---any suggestions--

Sounds like the wiring between the generator, regulator and ammeter is messed up. You need to carefully check the wiring both for damage and for wrong connections. Also need to verify that the ammeter is working.

If the wiring is correct and the battery is runs down in an hour or two, the ammeter should indicate a significant discharge (-10 amps or more) as it runs down.

Presuming the diesel has a 'pull to stop' knob to shut it down, the fact the engine continues to run after disconnecting the battery cables means nothing - this is normal.
