I have been having problems with charging system on My '61 140. Still has original 6 volt system on it. Hasn't been charging properly, jumped the F term and got the generator to put out a good charge. Thought voltage regulator was bad, just replaced it, polarized it to the generator then started it up. Seemed to be charging fine, turned on lights, drew ammeter down a little but was still showing a positive charge. Shut it down. Thought everything was fine. Happened to to check ammeter when done and noticed a discharge. Checked volt reg and it was getting hot and so was the genny! Went to disconnect battery by the ground and something was drawing a lot of current! Isolated genny by disconnecting wires to it and tested the two terminals on it and showed zero resistance on ohmmeter? Something seems off here. Internal short in generator? Hope You guys can help! Thanks for the help in advance guys, You all have a vast store of knowledge and help!
