Voltage regulator? It's a '63 IH 706 w/ the 282.
Here's the symptoms and the back story: Started it using the glow plugs, after holding the button down for about 45sec the spring on the glow plug meter needle was actually glowing and smoke was coming from the back of it. Obviously stopped pushing the button and it stopped smoking and glowing - but the tractor stared fine. Then I noticed that there was light smoke coming from the back of the box in this pic and a faint burnt electrical smell. Hurried up w/ the chores and shut it back down - it was probably running for 15-20min and the smoke or smell never got any worse.
Back story: couple months ago I burned out all my glow plugs by using a 200amp charger to start it. Changed all the glow plugs and the battery and it's been good since. I'm thinking I mostly burned this out and it finally let go?
So what's my next step? Just replace the box or did I fry the glow plug meter as well as other stuff? Any other tips/advice?
