Hi wfsproul.......I had some problems withmy generator as well and the guys here helped me resolve the issues. Type in the search box the following "D2 Geneator and Pony carb saga continued........ " without the quotations and yes I know generator is spelled wrong...😊 This will take you to where Old Magnet and others answered the questions you have now.....hopefully....😊
Have a good evening.......Bill
Need to know whether it is a Delco Remy or American Bosch generator/regulator combination as they are polarized differently.
Polarizing establishes the initial magnetism required to make the system work.
regulator says Delco Remy. Cannot read the tag on generator.
Assuming the generator and regulator are a match....usually are.
To polarize:
Connect all the leads to the regulator and momentarily touch a jumper between the "Gen" and "Bat" terminals of the regulator.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
