My neighbor has a real nice 300 and it works great.........Untill it takes a fit. It has a 12v convertion and the alt. charges full all the time. It has 3 wires and I"m not sure if he has it wired right. He has no light and he doesn"t know if it has a diode. It was converted by the last guy who owned it. When it throws a fit he just changes everything he sees untill it runs again. He"s not the best mech. I have ever met!So my first question is why does it charge all the time? The battery is good,I checked that first. It starts charging as soon as you start the motor. He changed the alt. and the new alt does the same thing. So how do I get it to charge right? After that I"ll try to deal with other problems. I"m goin to bypass the ignition switch to see if that will keep it running. But I think I need to get the alt. calmed down first.Can anyone tell me what mistake in the wiring would make it charge all the time?

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.
