Steven - All of the ideas below will work, though with a couple of clarifications: 1 - Wire the Hobbs meter "-" terminal to the regulator GEN terminal. (Assumes you have a positive ground system - if your tractor is negative ground connect the Hobbs "+" terminal to the GEN terminal) The meter should run whenever the motor is running, even when the generator is not charging (3 or 4 volts appears at the GEN terminal even at low idle...) 2 - The pressure switch idea will work - though you gotta use a NORMALLY OPEN pressure switch (one that closes it's switch contacts when it senses pressure) for this to work. Note: Nearly all vehicle oil pressure switches are NORMALLY CLOSED - contacts close on loss of oil pressure. So you can't simply grab any old oil pressure switch and have this one work. 3 - Replace the stock magneto kill switch with a DPDT toggle switch. If you wire it correctly, no relay is required. I personally prefer #3...
