Regulator/alternator advice

Posted by wallacedw on June 10, 2008 at 12:57:01 from (24.225.17.43):

I lost a terminal off the regulator the other day washingn the tractor. So this is a follow on...

The tractor starts and runs good but constantly shows a positive charge. I read somewhere that the regulator will lessen the charge into the points after the tractor is warmed up and all. So I am thinking that it won't since the terminal is rusted off. The regulator on the tractor looks similar to the one in the manual... 3 on one side and one by itself on a different side but it isnt exactly alike. By looking at the book, I think the one that is rusted off is the "Gen" which is supposed to go to the 'A' terminal on the alternator...

What is that wire doing? Regulating the power going to the points or too the battery or am I just out in left field?

Also.. if I can solder a new terminal to the regulator, will that work?
