I checked it from Bat terminal to ground at max RPM...and best I could get was little over 12 volts, and that's with the smaller overdrive pulley. Removal of the + post, shuts the tractor off...which I know you are not supposed to do..but..figured what the heck. I ordered a new 3 wire alternator this morning, from Carquest...for a 76/6 cylinder Chevy truck....before going to work. I know the owner really well. Now that Carquest and Advance have merged...he was worried that they would make him change his Tier suppliers for things like starters, alternators, etc--but so far, they haven't pushed the issue. He said if they did that...he was going to change over and go NAPA. He, is the only parts store, in our small little town. Have a bud who loves building old Camaros...has both a 67 as well as a 69, which both are sweet looking cars. He kept having issues with the old style OEM alternators and voltage regulators that are supplied now, my guess...via China.. mainly overcharge issues..and boiling the battery over to the point it would swell the battery on one of them. He would manually set them to charge at 13.5 to 14 volts...and their setting would change, over time. He just finally threw in the towel..and purchased true 1 wire for both from NAPA...and never looked back and his issues were over. He doesn't do a lot of night driving however, but the 1 wire still puts 14 volts at the battery, if he blips the throttle at startup.

Today's Featured Article - A Lifetime of Farm Machinery - by Joe Michaels. I am a mechanical engineer by profession, specializing in powerplant work. I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas. I have always had a love for machinery, and an appreciation for farming and farm machinery. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery. I credit my parents for instilling a lot of good values, a respect for learning, a knowledge of various skills and a little knowledge of farming in me, amo
