Hey all! I have a 45 farmall M that a converted to 12 volt about a year ago. I used a Delco Remy 10SI which I think is the recommended alternator. I did not follow any wiring plan, I just ran one wire from the BATT stud to one side of the amp gauge. This set up worked for about 8 months, and then all of sudden stop charging. I just now got around to fixing it. The alternator has proper ground but just is not putting out good voltage. So I had O’Rileys check it and they said that the alternator was good.
Moving forward I went to this site and I used the wiring diagram by Bob Melvile. After getting all the needed components and wiring it up the tractor still will not charge. I get the same voltage out of the alternator with the tractor on or off. So I’m stumped I have been told the alternator is good yet I can’t seem to get it to work. And the alternator did work with only connecting one wire. If any of you guys could tell me what would work that would be awesome.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
