Update...to answer a few questions, I have the 1967 model, gas continental z-145 engine. After charging the battery, it started up and ran great. While running the gauge on the dash is slightly on the negative side, and when I am using the headlights, it is around -10. Also, when taking a reading of the volts while the engine is running, it fluctuates in the mid 13's. I read somewhere that the RPM's need to be above 1700 in order for the generator to charge like it's supposed to, but I've just been running at around 12-1300 while blading the snow. I'm not sure if I just need to run the throttle higher or if I have a wire that's not getting a great connection or if the generator's just not putting out what it should. Also, when I take of the positive cable while it's running, it dies.
