I recently purchase a farmall M and haven't received any books on this

> job. It is still positive ground, looks like the original starter, dist,
> and a single terminal altenator. They had a wire from the altenator to the
> light switch with an inline fuse but there was not a fuse in the tube so
> it wasn't doing anything. How do I know if there is a voltage regulator in
> the altenator or not? Should I change it neg. ground? Will that cause any
> problems with the starter? If it is neg. ground should the neg. wire from

> 13+. So the altenator has a neg. field. Right? Is there a diagram that
