I all is set up correctly, connecting the battery either positive or negative ground will work. However, I expect the W-6 was originally positive ground. You don't say if you have battery ignition or a magneto or if you have original 6 volt generator or has been converted to a 12 volt alternator. However, it sounds as though your generator is not charging the battery and your ignition is running the battery down after a time. Things to check. Does your amp gage show charge?? If you have a generator, is it correctly polarized. If you have a generator and it does not show charge on the ammeter, then you can check the generator by grounding the field terminal (carefull not to ground anything else) With the field terminal of the generator grounded you should get max charge rate of around 10 to 15 amps if you have the original generator. If you don't, likely the regulator or the cut out relay is bad. Hope this helps.
