The alternator I was working on when I had the other question is now installed and working. I put it on the 300 when the alt that was on there stopped working correctly. The one that quit stopped showing a charge on the ammeter, but when I put the cheap digital multimeter I have on the battery posts or on the big terminal on the alt I was getting a reading between 15 and 18 volts that jumped around. I took it off and put in a VR and replaced the rectifier, which had loose insulation around the three little studs. The diode trio looked okay and the brushes were still good. When I put it back on the tractor it was still doing the same thing so I took it off and put on the newly rebuilt one. I would like to get this alt fixed and put it on an Allis C that I am working on. I am wondering if anyone can tell me which parts would cause it to behave like that, or if I should just get a full rebuild kit and replace everything. Any advice will be much appreciated. Zach
