Chris, I just got a 1948 Super A and it had an 8-volt battery in it. It was neg. ground and I turned bat. around and got it pos. ground as original. This tractor's amp guage shows the same as you mentioned. It has a low and high charge rate on the light switch with lights off. On high rate, mid-idle, it really charges ! There are 4 positions on the light switch. On low rate, it is just normal. Does yours have that feature? I think it is for charging stronger when your bat. is low or weak? I recall reading that somewhere. I had to put new wire from light switch to headlights and used 10 guage wire. 8 volt bat. seems to work well with the old bulb style lights. My old wiring was junk and light duty anyway. You might consider 8-volt ! MJD
