Well, got to work on the H today. Tried everything. Moved the brush closer to the closest fixed brush (the one with the wire going to the Armature terminal, not the bush that's grounded) and gained a whole amp. Charged at 4 amps according to the gauge. Tried cleaning generator mounting, cut out mounting, field and aramture terminals on cut out and generator. That helped a bit. Got it up to 6 amps. Tried running a new field wire, actually got worse amperage - around 4 amps using 12 ga wire. Tried dedicated ground from box to positive post of battery, still 4 amps. Think I might get a new harness. Found a bunch of bare spots through the original cloth insulation. Is six amps all I'm going to get out of it at 3/4 throttle? With the lights on high beam, it still shows discharging at about 4 amps or so. Better, but not ideal I would think.
