Picked up another Cub, unlike most of them that we buy this one has a complete and decent looking 6 volt system. Most cubs we buy are missing wiring and don't have a generator or alternator.Hope to keep it that way. Tractor cranks right up and runs.It's not charging.Here's where I'm at. Unhooked the generator belt, ran a jumper wire to generator and it turns. Pull the ignition switch and the amp gauge barely moved to discharge. Start the tractor and needle moves back to center. Tried 2 different regulators, no difference. 3 different gauges,no difference.Ran all new wires, cleaned all connections, no difference. With the belt off I could push one contact in regulator down and generator would run..... What what am I missing? Battery fully charged, it cranks tractor as fast as any 12 volt Cub I own.
