Rich sorry if I upset you but in the past I have had to repair a lot of things that someone redid without the knowledge of how to do it. Your state that you did not know whether you had a Gen. or an alt. Simply said to me this guy is really new to this stuff. I know we can spend all day teaching you the difference and how they both work but it would be better if would get book on basic automotive electrical systems to study then you could ask better question that would be easier to answer without writing an entire book for you. Go to Amazon.com and see what they have I have found a lot of good books there. Remember its the Basics that you want you need that to understand the manuals as you read them they are written for people with a working knowledge of systems for each part of the tractor not for the beginner to try to teach himself how to be a mechanic. By the way automotive electrical is a job all to its self. Many good mechanics have trouble understanding it if they have not been trained. Anyway i'm sorry that I upset you so please stay around and learn as we go though this for you. And like i said get a beginners book so that you understand the basics. Walt 40 years mechanic and by know means an expert. I still use all my manuals and books to look things up to make sure I'm doing things correctly. Any mechanic who thinks he doesn't need the manual is not one that I would hire to work for me or on my stuff.
