Hi Dan:
Just out of curiosity, as I was a IH mechanic for 30 some years. Have you checked all grounds on the tractor? What I'am saying is, run wire from mounting bolt on generator to regulator base, from there directly to positive cable on battery. Assuming it is positive ground. This is the only other connection that is assumed to be a direct connection with the battery, and it is not. It has many bolted connections in between. Gen to bracket, bracket to engine, engine to transmission housing, and to rear axle. Plus the ground cable back the other way. Hope you get my meaning of this. Found that to be a problem many times. Not only on Cubs, but many of the bigger ones. Electricity is always looking for an easy way out. Hope this helps, please let me know.
