Here is what I have so far: 53 cub Battery ignition 6 volt positive ground three position light switch O D B battery static voltage is 6.19 start tractor and run at 3/4 throttle - get 1 maybe 2 amps CHARGE turn light switch to "D" amps drop to 0 turn light switch to "B" amps drop to -1 NEW regulator ground "F" terminal and amp guage pegs to full CHARGING. Means gen is good right? Gen IS polarized! will not keep battery charged after running for an hour or two. My grandfather, whom has passed last year, has had this problem for a long time with this tractor and I have exhausted my knowledge and the knowledge that I have gotten from this forum and I give up. The tractor acted this way with the original regulator that (I just replaced) and with the regulator from my C which charges, and with the new regulator that I just purchased. Only thing that is not original is that the little fuse that was in the instrument cluster has been eliminated. Grandad solder the wires together. When I got the tractor a couple of weeks ago I traced out all the wires and found that the "F" and and the "A" wires from the gen were backwords on the regulator. "F" to "GEN" and "A" to "F". I switched them back and this did not help. I don't think it has hurt the gen because I can get full charge by grounding the "F" terminal. The gen has three brushes but the third one is NOT adjustable. So now what?!?!?!?!?

Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
