    Battery loosing charge

    Showing about +7 on the ammeter when running, and +2 with the ignition on, and 0 with the ignition off. Also, just installed a new VRegulator. Although, this tractor since i have had it has not held a charge, ever for the past 4 years. Probably the battery. It's from 2005.
